Trinity Church Cemetery, Historic cemetery at Wall Street and Broadway, Manhattan, United States

The Trinity Church Cemetery encompasses three burial grounds connected to Trinity Parish, featuring Gothic architecture and landscaped grounds in downtown Manhattan.

Established in 1696 under Governor Benjamin Fletcher's approval, the cemetery served as Manhattan's primary burial ground until 1823 restrictions limited downtown interments.

The cemetery contains graves of significant American figures, including Alexander Hamilton, Robert Fulton, and John Jacob Astor IV among its notable memorials.

The cemetery grounds remain open for visitors daily, offering guided historical tours and maintaining active burial services in its uptown location.

Trinity Church Cemetery stands as Manhattan's last operating cemetery, featuring the Heritage Rose District with historical rose varieties growing among the monuments.
