Cemetery

Welcome to the Toquerville City Cemetery, a place of rest and remembrance that has been serving the citizens and surrounding areas since the late 1800s. Our cemetery is a historical landmark, with most of the older graves being set on the east side along with a monument commemorating those whose grave locations have been lost to natural disasters such as wind, fire, and rain. As you explore the grounds, you'll find graves dating back to our city’s early days, reflecting our community's rich history and heritage.
