Forest Hills Cemetery Tour
Produced by Christine Fichera and Gavin Mac Carthy
The Victorians crowded into Forest Hills Cemetery on weekends
for picnics and strolling among the gravestones. The cemetery
was so popular that at one point, you could only get in on Sundays
if you had a ticket, and you could only get a ticket if you
had a family member buried there.
These days cemeteries are no longer considered a picnic ground,
but Forest Hills is still a quiet place in the city where people
go to enjoy nature, art, and reflect on life and death.
Step through the gates and take an interactive
tour of the Forest Hills Cemetery (Requires Flash - Download
