Operating for over a century, Carr Villa Memorial Park is owned and operated by the City of Launceston and stands as the principal cemetery and crematorium complex serving Launceston and the wider Northern Tasmania region.
Carr Villa's dedication lies in offering services that resonate with the needs, beliefs, and preferences of the community. Our burial, ash placement and memorial services are anchored in principles of respect, compassion, integrity, and trust.
The Carr Villa site represents a remarkable blend of nature, history, art, and spirituality. Featuring mature aged trees, rosemary hedges, manicured lawns, and picturesque landscaped gardens, the site offers a peaceful, tranquil setting for both commemoration and reflection.
In July 2024, the City of Launceston commenced the development of a Carr Villa Memorial Park draft masterplan. The plan's aim is to establish a clear strategic direction to enable the delivery of cemetery services for the next 100 years.
Following extensive key stakeholder consultation, as well as community engagement during October and November 2024, the project will now move into the design phase, with a draft masterplan to be finalised in February 2025 for The Council's consideration. Once considered by Council, the draft masterplan will be released to the community for feedback.
The City of Launceston will publicly advertise when this consultation phase opens, and details will be listed here on the Carr Villa Memorial Park page on how to engage.
