A historic Melbourne cemetery, caring for families since 1859
Boroondara General Cemetery, known to many as Kew Cemetery, has cared for Melbourne families since 1859. It's one of the oldest cemeteries in Victoria, a heritage-listed garden cemetery in Kew, and the resting place of more than 80,000 people, from the pioneers who shaped early Melbourne to the families we support today.
Whether you're facing a recent loss or planning ahead, our team offers burial and cremation memorial options, personalised support and a thoughtful approach to every farewell. Our step-by-step guide to planning a funeral can help you know where to begin.
The grounds are open every day, 8am to 5pm. You're welcome to walk the tree-lined paths, discover our history and heritage monuments, or find a loved one in our burial records.
