Function
The function of a Carillon Tower is to provide bell tower music for the cemetery. Speakers may be included in the Carillon Tower to provide pre-recorded music from the Committal Service Shelter location before, during or after interment services.
The cemetery development plan may include a location for the carillon tower, which is a donated item at a state cemetery.
Components
The Carillon Tower should be constructed of materials that blend in with other cemetery components. A sound system is incorporated into the tower to provide bell tower sounds.

Design Requirements
A Carillon Tower is approximately 45 feet high with a six foot by six foot base. The Master Plan may provide a location and electrical conduit rough-in connecting the Carillon Tower to built-in speakers at the Committal Service Shelter Storage Closet which will play taps after the Committal Service. Please note that a Carillon Tower is optional at a state veterans cemetery. Again, this is typically a donated item at a state cemetery.
Cost
Varies - Donated Item.
