The Crematorium and Urn Grove in Bratislava is the first crematorium in Slovakia opening in 1968. The architectural style of the building is designed in the spirit of Nordic Modernism, and was placed on sloping property among a grove of well-established trees. For the beautiful design, the building was earned the Dušan Jurkovič Award, the 2001 Herder Prize for Architect, and the State Prize. The building has been registered as a national landmark. The Urn Grove contains sculptures of local folk culture: the totem-sculpture by Vladimír Kompánek, the travertine sculpture by Uher, Tóth's figure of "Sorrow", and Milučký's burial ground for important personalities. Many prominent members of Slavic society are buried here.
