King's Chapel Burying Ground - Boston's earliest colonial cemetery

King's Chapel Burying Ground, established in 1630 behind King's Chapel, is the oldest cemetery in Boston and contains gravestones and markers dating to the 17th century. The site documents early colonial settlement patterns and is adjacent to the historic King's Chapel building and its later churchyard layout. The burying ground is part of Boston's colonial-era landscape and is interpreted by local historical organizations and walking tours.
