The invention relates to an urn column, consisting of a segment (0) with a hollow body (1) which serves to receive and store a plurality of urn capsules (2). The urn capsules (2) are wrapped in urn carrier bags (3) with vertically adjustable carrying straps (4), and inserted into the upper cavity opening (5), suspended one above the other, extending from the bottom up. In so doing, each urn carrier bag (3), filled with the urn capsule (2), is fastened with vertically adjustable carrying straps (4) to the upper suspension annulus (6) and fixed in its particular position in the hollow body (1) of the urn column. The suspension annulus (6) is firmly connected to the upper cavity opening (5) of the urn column and both are covered with a cover (7) in any desired form. On the urn column surface the marking (8) of the urn column contents is provided by means of a suspension apparatus (9) which permits the attachment of flower vase holders (10) and grave candle holders (11). The bottom anchoring is effected via a concrete foundation (12) to permit a space-saving, vertical erection of the urn column on any desired ground.
