Mt Hope Cemetery

In 1869, a citizen committee, led by Alonzo Horton - regarded as the father of modern San Diego - was tasked with establishing a new municipal cemetery to replace earlier ones that no longer met the needs of the growing community. The committee selected Mount Hope Cemetery, which officially opened in 1871. Horton himself is buried here, adding to the cemetery's historical importance. Over the years, Mount Hope Cemetery has expanded to include burial areas originally designated for the International Order of Foresters, Masonic Lodge, Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), Fraternal Order of Eagles, and the County of San Diego Indigent Burial Program. In February 1973, a Veteran's Section was dedicated in honor of all San Diego veterans. The cemetery now spans 110 usable acres, with 80 acres currently in use and over 76,000 interments.
