If you don’t let the general public in (one day a week with limited hours doesn’t count) you shouldn’t have tax exempt status.

Beautiful cemetery with beautiful views of the city. Very peaceful. For some reason we were told visits aren’t allowed on Fridays.

On June 6th 2022, The security guard was rude and threaten to call the cops on me and it was very unnecessary because I was visiting a someone who died and i was trying to visit but it seems like they don't care about the dead people's families.

As a passionate funeral director and cemeterian, I was pleasantly surprised by this Oakland gem. Beautifully kept grounds, chapels, and mausoleums. It's nice to see the community have access to this gorgeous space for respectful recreational purposes in addition to honoring loved ones.

Questions & Answers

Why is this outdoor cemetery, where people can socially distance themselves still closed to the general public. This cemetery belongs to the people of Oakland.

No, it does not belong to the people of Oakland. The cemetery is private property and is owned by the plot owners who have paid for their family members to be interred there.
