Mt. Thompson Memorial Gardens is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens, with an abundance of trees and flowers providing a serene backdrop to both its chapels—the historic art deco West Chapel and the tranquil, contemporary East Chapel.

​

Both chapels offer funeral webcasting, allowing services to be live-streamed and recorded so that loved ones who are unable to attend in person can still be part of the farewell.

​

The heritage-listed West Chapel, built in 1934 alongside the original site buildings, features striking interiors, including walls lined in black and dove grey Queensland marble up to seven feet high, and a terrazzo floor bordered with elegant marble surrounds.

​

The East Chapel, designed by award-winning architect Adrian Pooley, offers a sleek and modern contrast. The attached courtyard and enclave were conceived by avant-garde architect Dr Karl Langer, who was cremated at Mt. Thompson following his passing in 1969.

​

Recent refurbishments have rejuvenated Pooley’s original vision for the East Chapel, creating a clean and sophisticated aesthetic that beautifully contrasts with the West Chapel’s timeless art deco style.
