The Big Read: Historic Naas cemetery pyramids restored to former glory Project: Kildare County Council among organisations involved Reporter: '); But who knew Naas had two — albeit of a more recent vintage ? Two pyramid mausoleums — or mausolea to use the correct term — have been restored at the Maudlins Cemetery off Dublin Road. And it is intended that the finished work will be open to the public. It is thought the two pyramid mausolea date from around 1840 and one was built by the Burgh family, later known as the De Burghs, who can trace their origins back to Emperor Charlemagne in the middle ages.
