Geelong Memorial Park   

Geelong Cemetery

Land was acquired in 1980 in Burvilles Rd, Mount Duneed for the establishment of Geelong's first crematorium. Prior to this being built, those families seeking cremation had to go to Ballarat, Altona, Fawkner or The Necropolis. The first cremation took place on 21st April 1988. Since that time over 13,000 cremations have been performed.

The grounds provide for the placement of cremated remains in rose and shrub gardens, niche walls and family tree gardens, along with lawn areas for burials. There is a chapel for services and the Book of Remembrance is on display in the chapel foyer.
