Mount Royal Cemetery, National historic cemetery in Outremont, Canada.

The Mount Royal Cemetery extends across 165 acres of terraced grounds on the northern slope of Mount Royal, featuring winding paths and flower gardens.

Established in 1852, this burial ground transformed former farmland into Montreal's first cemetery on Mount Royal, receiving national historic site designation in 1998.

The cemetery includes sections for different religious communities, with Protestant, Reform Jewish, and veteran areas represented through distinct memorial structures.

Located at 1297 Chemin de la Forêt in Outremont, the cemetery maintains burial records and offers genealogical research services through its administrative office.

The cemetery houses Canada's first crematorium, constructed in 1901, which remained Quebec's only such facility until 1975.
