Pine Grove Cemetery

Our local history runs deep at Pine Grove Cemetery in Nevada City. One of the oldest cemeteries in Nevada County, it is the final resting place of generations of long-established Nevada County families, Free Masons, Old Odd Fellows, and veterans of the Spanish American War and World War I.

Many of the citizens buried at Pine Grove were born long before gold was discovered and California became a state. Partially restored by a local gardening group, the cemetery features elaborately carved tombstones and intricate ironwork. Pine Grove Cemetery is located just across Red Dog Road from Forest View Cemetery.
