Unique & Special Options
Historic Burial Grounds
Over the last few years, Forest Hills Cemetery has initiated a project to identify gravesites in the historical areas of the Cemetery. We are fortunate that the original founders and designers of Forest Hills Cemetery provided for generous margins of land between family lots — today these are areas that we can offer for burial.
Words from Our Families and Friends
Was planning on going to a different cemetery while visiting Boston, but it was closed earlier than expected and I’m so glad. Forest hills was so beautiful. We followed the green line on the ground which led us to a really nice security guard who told us we could pull over anywhere so long as our car wasn’t on the grass
On a sunny winter day, when I seek solitude and deep reflection, I venture to the Forest Hills Cemetery. The snow-covered grounds, illuminated by the bright winter sun, sparkle with an ethereal light, giving the cemetery an almost serene, otherworldly beauty
I recently read about the lives of poets Sylvia Plath & Anne Sexton. Since I’m in the 02321 for a house-sitting gig, I decided to pilgrimage to Sexton’s gravesite in Forest Hills cemetery–an absolute hidden gem (the cemetery, not the gravesite)
One of the biggest and most beautiful cemeteries in New England. Unique, well maintained, and plenty to see. Peaceful. I had a long ride to get here, so I was so happy they had a bathroom and it was clean lol.
