ABOUT THIS CEMETERY

About Cypress Hills Cemetery

A 225-acre non-sectarian cemetery established in 1848 spanning the Brooklyn–Queens border, Cypress Hills has more than 400,000 interments representing nearly every faith and community in New York City. Memor maps its dense, sprawling grounds so families can walk straight to a grave.

Notable residents range from boxing champion James J. Corbett and painter Piet Mondrian to baseball legend Jackie Robinson and jazz pioneer Eubie Blake, reflecting more than 175 years of New York City history. A national cemetery section within its grounds holds Civil War and later veterans.
