Riverside Cemetery
Riverside has been described in multiple ways since its conception including “Appleton’s most beautiful Cemetery” and “Appleton’s silent city”. In its early years it was also referred to as “Appleton’s Popular resort” since it was considered a place for the living and the dead. Commonly one could see hundreds of people picnicking on Sundays amongst the stones on the high bluff overlooking the Fox, where a view up and down the river presented itself. The road beneath the cemetery proper, running along the river, was vernacularly known as “Lover’s Lane”. In 1910 the stone entrance to Riverside was erected. This impressive “door” to the cemetery includes a chapel, office space and winter storage for bodies, used at a time when winter burials were not possible.
