Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park

Eastern Suburbs Memorial Park in Matraville is one of Sydney’s most historic cemetery and crematorium sites, overlooking Botany Bay. The cemetery dates back to the late 1800s, and its Art Deco crematorium officially opened in 1938.

The park has two chapels: the South Chapel, seating up to 120 guests, and the West Chapel for more intimate gatherings of up to 60. Both have additional outdoor seating and undercover screens for overflow viewing.

The grounds also include Pioneer Memorial Park, home to headstones relocated from Sydney’s original Devonshire Street Cemetery, and many war graves cared for by the Office of Australian War Graves.
