About Granary Burying Ground
Established in 1660, Granary Burying Ground is one of the oldest and most historically significant cemeteries in Boston, Massachusetts. Renowned for its prominent monuments and tombstones that sprawl over half an acre, it is the eternal resting place for some of the city's most distinguished citizens, including three signatories of the Declaration of Independence - Samuel Adams, John Hancock, and Robert Treat Paine. Granary Burying Ground displays a rich tableau of the city's storied past and remains an essential destination for history enthusiasts and visitors alike. The cemetery takes its name from the old grain warehouse, also known as the Granary, which used to be situated on the nearby site now occupied by Park Street Church. The City of Boston maintains this treasured landmark as part of its ongoing commitment to preserving and honoring its deep historical roots.
