Eli5 what happens if a cemetery runs out of space to bury bodies?

Answer 1

In my rather small hometown growing up when they ran out of space they started building masoleums(spelling). Giant buildings that use vertical space and you bought a tray instead of a plot in the ground. Its existed for over 100 years and every decade maybe they build another one of these buildings. I’ve had great grandparents I wasn’t alive during their lives that died in the 40s and 50s that are still buried there.
