Forest Hills Cemetery: A Historical Tour

Forest Hills, established in 1848, is one of the jewels of Greater Boston. Victorians created this eternal resting place for their loved ones, while at the same time designing a landscape where the living could enjoy nature. We’ll walk along the winding paths to sites including Daniel Chester French’s masterpiece, Death Stays the Hand of the Sculptor, as well as the resting places of social reformer Abby May, Revolutionary War Hero General Joseph Warren, and Dr. Susan Dimock, a pioneer surgeon. In this tree-filled sanctuary, we will explore the stories of our civic ancestors, both the famous and the lesser-known.
