Mount Hope Cemetery, established in 1852 and purchased by the City of Boston in 1857, covers 125 acres and stands as the first large cemetery owned by the city. Developed in line with the principles of the Rural Cemetery Movement, it features landscaped grounds and provides passive outdoor recreation for the local community.
Over the years, the cemetery has grown to include special monuments honoring various groups, including veterans, and offers a glimpse into the history of burial practices in Boston. The site also addresses the needs of the city's indigent population, featuring unmarked graves at the rear of the cemetery.
