Vine Lake Cemetery continues to evolve. From its geological beginnings, it has a varied terrain and natural beauty.  Human ideas about death, landscape design, and visitor needs have continually transformed the cemetery since its founding in 1651. Through it all, it has remained a peaceful and dignified open space for the dead to rest and for the living to visit and enjoy.
