Bellefontaine and Calvary Cemeteries
Bellefontaine Cemetery (established in 1849) and the Roman Catholic Calvary Cemetery (established in 1857) in St. Louis, Missouri are adjacent burial grounds, which have numerous historic and extravagant tombstones and mausoleums. They are the necropolis for a number of prominent local and state politicians, as well as soldiers of the American Civil War. Founders planned Bellefontaine Cemetery to make room for development in the business area before the cholera epidemic of 1849.
