Nyuserre built a pyramid for himself at Abusir named Mensut Nyuserre, meaning "Established are the places of Nyuserre" or "The places of Nyuserre endure".

The completed pyramid was entirely covered in fine limestone.
It was about 52 m (171 ft) tall, with a base of 78.8 m (259 ft) along each side, a slope of 52 degrees and a total volume of stone of about 112,000 m³ (4,000,000 cu ft).
The burial chamber and antechamber were both lined with fine limestone as well and roofed with three tiers of gigantic limestone beams 10 m (33 ft) long weighing 90 tons each.

The pyramid complex is unusual as the outer sections of the mortuary temple are offset to the south of the eastern side of the complex.
This allowed Nyuserre to intercept and complete his father's causeway, which led from the valley temple close to the Nile to the pyramid itself on the desert edge.
The valley temple of Nyuserre was thus built on the foundations laid by his father for his own unfinished valley temple.
Once completed, it consisted of a portico with eight papyriform columns, its floor was of black basalt and its walls were made of limestone with painted reliefs above a dado of red granite.
The back of the portico led to the causeway, the base of which was entirely covered in basalt, while its upper portions where decorated with numerous reliefs, some showing the king as a sphinx trampling over his enemies.
The causeway was roofed by limestone blocks painted in blue with golden stars.

Arriving near the pyramid, the causeway led into a columned courtyard preceded by storage rooms and succeeded by the mortuary temple itself, which housed statues of the king and depictions of the royal family and Nyuserre in the presence of the gods.
The wider pyramid complex was enclosed by a wall, with two large rectangular structures on its north-east and south-east corners.
Both Lehner and Verner see these as the precursor of the pylon, characteristic of later Egyptian temples.
Beyond the main pyramid was a smaller one for the Ka of the king.
