We are the town cemetery where generations of Danvers inhabitants have chosen to spend eternal life. Located in the heart of Danvers, Walnut Grove provides the ideal location for local families to visit and remember their loved ones. The peaceful, beautiful and historic grounds have served as a sanctuary in which to honor the memories of the departed since 1843.
Walnut Grove is a non-denominational cemetery offering both interment and cremation options. Given our commitment to the Town of Danvers and its citizens, traditional and cremation-only burial lots are offered to current Danvers residents and former Danvers residents with permission.

In addition to ground burial plots, the cemetery has two columbarium gardens including the addition of a new columbarium in Fall 2022. Each niche accommodates 2 urns. (See photo below).
Steeped in history and tradition, Walnut Grove is governed by a Board of Trustees with deep roots in the community who are committed to maintaining its heritage and integrity for many generations into the future. Sound financial management ensures the ongoing upkeep and maintenance of this beautiful cemetery for years to come.
