Key West Historic Cemetery
The island’s historic cemetery gathers above-ground graves, family memorials and stories of many Key West communities. A self-guided walk reveals more than its famous epitaphs.
The variety of markers shows how different generations chose to remember their dead. Moving among the graves also makes the island’s limited space and long history visible in one place. Look beyond the well-known inscriptions for quieter family plots and maritime connections, while treating the grounds as a living cemetery.
