About this business

This cemetery gets its name from Alexander Hamilton's house, Woodlands, which is also on the premises and has been in use for over two centuries. Exquisitely crafted neo-classical crypts, mausoleums and obelisks dominate the Woodlands cemetery. The cemetery is most well known for its famous 'guests' that were once part of the Philadelphia elite. Take a historically rewarding, free day trip and explore the monuments. Guided tours are available.

I played in this mansion as a small child in the 1960's. I was friends with Mr. Scholl's children. I have vivid memories of "secret passages." I hope to return to Philly some day and show it to my grandsons.

Wonderful guided tour of the Mansion - a beautiful house. So interesting to find out about the history of Woodlands, and to hear about what is happening now. The grave gardening programme is inspired!
