Built in 1936, Dundee crematorium sits within four-and-a-half acres of woodland on the outskirts of Dundee. Our historic B-listed chapel features a 1954 Henry Willis organ and two beautiful stained-glass windows, creating a welcoming space to come together for a funeral service. Our peaceful gardens of remembrance, including the Path of Remembrance where floral tributes are displayed, offer a calm place for reflection throughout the year.
Our listed chapel at Dundee Crematorium has graceful archways, stained-glass windows and a vaulted ceiling which allows natural light to fill the room. With seating for up to 200 guests, we can accommodate both intimate funerals and larger services. We have a modern sound system to play music of your choice, and space for singers and musicians too.

Thank you for the respectful and caring way you looked after our dear father, Alexander Munro and our family through this difficult time. Everything was handled with great compassion. Thank you for helping us say goodbye in a way that honoured our father.

I have attended a few funerals over the years and I must say when I am there I can’t hear a thing Question is do they have a loop system for hard of hearing people. I have asked a few people if they heard clearly and most people say they could not hear clearly. Unless you are sitting at the front.

A huge 'thank you' to Marc from Dundee Crematorium. I went to visit my Mum and Dad's memorial rose plot 18th December 2025. I'd brought a Christmas wreath and photo slate etc. As I reached the grave, Marc was nearby and offered his help to tidy up the leaves from the plot and help place my items on the plot. Marc was so careful and considerate when placing the items. Marc noticed that the post supporting the rose tree was rotting at the base. He has now replaced the post too! This was so kind of Marc. I am disabled and would have struggled to do the wonderful job he did! The memorial rose plot looks absolutely beautiful! It's the first time in 19 years that I've been able to visit my Mum and Dad's memorial rose plot at Christmas time as I live in Portsmouth now. Marc you went above and beyond to help me and your kind words were much appreciated!
