There are just 28 bodies buried inside the Vanderbilt Mausoleum. The last burial was that of the famous horseman Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, in November of 1999. However, there are 30 sealed burial niches with names on them.....one Vanderbilt was lost in the sinking of the Lusitania, and another was lost in a mountaineering accident. Their remains were never recovered, but burial niches are dedicated to them in memoriam.
William Henry Vanderbilt set the rules for burial in the mausoleum. Only his male descendants and their wives qualify. as well as their male children the their wives. Unmarried daughters of those males also qualify. The Commodore (Cornelius) and his wives, and his parents are also among the buried. Gloria Vanderbilt does not qualify because she married (4 times). Her last husband, Wyatt Cooper is buried elsewhere. Her son Carter is buried in the Vanderbilt Cemetery, near the mausoleum, but not inside it. Anderson Cooper does not qualify for the mausoleum.
There are no seats in the nave of the mausoleum. The floor panels are made of Indiana limestone and can be moved to accommodate burials under the floor. The mausoleum contains 72 burial niches, 36 on either side of the nave, all behind bronze gates on each side of the nave.
The glass skylights in the cupolas were sealed off because attempts were made to enter the nave area through them. The glass panels were 6 inches thick. I have never been able to fine any documented reports that any burial niche was violated. But I might be wrong about that. Entry was attempted many time through the front gates, causing damage. A concrete pad was poured over the roof to prevent entry by digging in tr rough the rooftop.
The nearby tomb is the Sloane tomb. Sloane married one of William Henry's daughters.....look it up. When Sloane died, his tomb was not finished. He was temporarily stored inside the Vanderbilt mausoleum and then relocated into the Sloane tomb. Contrary to weird rumors, there is NO tunnel between the Vanderbilt mausoleum and the Sloane tomb.
There are Shepherds buried(through marriage) nearby in the Vanderbilt cemetery, not the mausoleum.
I can't verify any suicides at the mausoleum. The girl who was crushed died when the main entrance archway gate fell from its hinges while she was climbing it. It is a massive piece of wrought metal.....bronze, I believe.
Many people who qualified for burial in the mausoleum opted out. Each story is different. I assume there are many more living today who qualify, but I just cannot do that research. Certainly Alfred Vanderbilt and his son (and their wives)qualify.
More facts are welcome......Peace.

Mr and Mrs detective. It was a series in France in the 60 . The English title The Thin Man ( Peter Lawford) I like this place in Memphis. Thank. 😉🙏
I wanna. Thank you for taking me on your vacation with your wife with lovely.
That place is amazing.
Thank you for sharing everything with us God bless you in your wife.
Thanx for showing the terrace Spa Guy ❤ what's with the smoking machine is that for creating a fibe? The shop has a big hunting area upstairs and it was kind of shocking for me and my son of 12 cause you don’t see that in Holland and he really loves animals, so he run out of there and I ran after him😅 come to think of it Vernon told in an interview that he took Elvis out hunting once when he was a kid, then Elvis looked up and said daddy I don't like to do that, and Vernon never pushed him to go hunting again. I think that was great of Vernon cause he respected Elvis not being in his comfort zone doing that. Elvis liked guns though but the only animals he shot were apparently snakes, he hated them for some reason. Take care Spa Guy 😊
We visit bass pro shops when traveling and visited this one 2 years ago. I thought the store in Springfield Missouri was awesome until we came to this store/ hotel. If you traveling thru Memphis it’s worth the stop.
Great vlog. 👍
Achei aí lindo. Também estive aí.
Muito melhor que Hotel de Gracelnd
Did I hear bug zappers? Lol
Hey Billy I've been catching up on some videos and saw this video tonight. You know I respect your opinion so I have to ask you do you think the Memphis is getting safer? We would love to go back soon but man last time we were there it was a reminder of a bad night in New Orleans!
So far appears no change in the local government to make is safer.. There are sections that are great sadly Whitehaven is not one of them.. You would think the one thing in town that brings the most tourist would be the one they focus on but I can't see any evidence of it..
Do you have to be a paying guest at the Cypress Lodge to go out there or can anyone go out there? Since I live in the area I really don’t need to stay at the hotel.
I think that part is hotel guests only but not sure.. Seems like I might have seen an entrance on the left front of the main entrance but not sure..
If you have 300.00 + to spend a night it is a good place to stay
You have great taste When it comes to picking a lady. :)
She’s a looker…
