Cedar Hill Cemetery, Victorian rural cemetery in Hartford, Connecticut, United States.

Cedar Hill Cemetery extends across 270 acres of land with stone monuments, mausoleums, and tree-lined pathways throughout the grounds.

Landscape architect Jacob Weidenmann designed Cedar Hill Cemetery in 1864, following the principles established by Mount Auburn Cemetery in Massachusetts.

The cemetery contains monuments of various architectural styles, including an 18-foot pink granite pyramid and the Northam Memorial Chapel from 1882.

The main entrance at Fairfield and Maple Avenues opens from 7:00 AM to 8:00 PM during summer months and 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM in winter.

Among the 30,000 individuals buried here lies Yung Wing, the first Chinese graduate from an American university, who completed his studies at Yale.
