Crypts, Mausoleums and tombs are places where people are buried. They may be communal or individual, depending on personal preference.
To understand the differences:
- A crypt is underground (in a passageway where people can move around).
- A mausoleum is a structure, usually elaborate and grand.
- A tomb is a general term, which may include the above, but generally for most people is a simple grave, which may be marked with a stone.
