Mount Hope Cemetery, established in 1852 and purchased by the City of Boston in 1857, spans 125 acres and is notably designed reflecting the ideals of the Rural Cemetery Movement. This historic site not only serves as a resting place for the deceased but also provides a scenic locale for passive outdoor recreation with its beautifully landscaped grounds and seasonal floral displays.

Over the years, Mount Hope Cemetery has honored various groups, including veterans and local organizations, through the erection of special monuments. Despite facing challenges in its development and public access, it has remained an important aspect of Boston's heritage, with an expansive area dedicated to unmarked graves of the city's indigent population.
