Cypress Lawn Memorial Park combines a historic cemetery with a significant arboretum in Colma.
Memorial art, landscaped grounds and organized heritage interpretation offer a different way to explore the history of the San Francisco Bay Area.
Check current visiting rules and the operator’s tour calendar before arrival. The photograph focuses on an angel sculpture at Thomas O. Larkin’s grave, rather than the entire cemetery or permission to enter every building. Follow the designated visitor routes, respect services and mourners, and confirm guided-tour or museum arrangements separately. This remains an active memorial landscape as well as a heritage destination.
