mausoleums? They are above ground storage for those so inclined and who can afford it. Creepy as far as i am concerned, but lots of interesting architecture. It was/is considered to reflect status, importance or wealth. Some even have "viewing portals”...why you would ever have any desire to do that is beyond me!

Sounds like you mean a Mausoleum. These can also be called crypts or vaults. They are used to store bodies from a family, rather than burying them.
