Holy Name Cemetery's Final Open House

Holy Name Cemetery and Mausoleum invites the community to its last open house weekend of the year, scheduled for Saturday, November 7, and Sunday, November 8, 2026. Located at 823 West Side Avenue in Jersey City, this special event will run from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM, showcasing not only the stunning beauty of the site but also unique financial offerings for families seeking burial solutions.

As families are likely aware, the holiday season can often touch on themes of remembrance and reflection. This open house serves as a poignant reminder for those looking to plan ahead and ensure peace of mind. Families will have the opportunity to receive information on traditional burial options and cremation niches, all while benefiting from a remarkable financing offer — 0% interest for the next 48 months, exclusive to this event. After this weekend, such incentives won’t be available again until 2027, making it a crucial time for families to consider their options.

Experience the Beauty of Holy Name Cemetery

During the open house, attendees can explore the beautiful Mausoleum Chapel, where stained-glass windows and mosaic art create a serene environment. Our knowledgeable and compassionate memorial planning advisors will be on hand to guide visitors through various burial and cremation options, as well as flexible financial planning. This ensures that families can make informed decisions without any obligation.

Visitors can expect a tranquil and park-like atmosphere at Holy Name Cemetery, which is noted for its traditional burial plots, private family lots, and interment sections for family graves. Given its special status as the only Catholic cemetery in Hudson County with available burial spaces, it holds a significant place for many local families. This weekend presents an excellent opportunity to learn more about available spaces close to their communities and loved ones.

Joseph Heckel, Executive Director of Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Newark, emphasizes the importance of planning ahead: "Planning ahead is one of the most loving gifts you can give to your family. It prevents them from making difficult decisions in a time of grief and ensures that your wishes are honored in a way that reflects your faith."

The weekend promises several attractions, including:

• - Financing at 0% interest for 48 months only available during the open house weekend.
• - Guided tours of climate-controlled mausoleums featuring marble crypts, cremation niches, and beautiful stained-glass artistry.
