Mausoleum: Thirty Seven Ballads from the History of Progress () is a 1975 poetry collection by the German writer Hans Magnus Enzensberger. It portrays 37 people Enzensberger regarded as the spiritual fathers of civilisation, presented only by their initials.
The book has been interpreted as a critique of technological progress and a turn toward ecology, expressed as an interest in botany and botanists.
