Walnut Grove Cemetery - Danvers

Walnut Grove Cemetery - Danvers Located in the heart of Danvers Massachusetts, Walnut Grove Cemetery is where generations have chosen to rest eternally since the early 1800s.

WGC is a non-profit organization governed by an all-volunteer board of trustees. We are the town cemetery where generations of Danvers inhabitants have chosen to spend eternal life. Located in the heart of Danvers, Walnut Grove provides the ideal location for local families to visit and remember their loved ones. The peaceful, beautiful and historic grounds have served as a sanctuary in which to honor the memories of the departed since incorporating in 1843. Walnut Grove is a non-denominational cemetery where all are welcome and space is plentiful for both interment and cremation options. In addition to thousands of available ground burial plots, the cemetery has a Columbarium garden with 96 niches, each niche accommodating 2 urns. The garden provides a quiet spot to reflect and remember. Although steeped in history and tradition, Walnut Grove is governed by a Board of Trustees with deep roots in the community who are committed to maintaining its heritage and integrity for many generations into the future. Sound financial management ensures the ongoing upkeep and maintenance of this beautiful cemetery for years to come.
