History & Symbolism Guided Tour – West Terrace Cemetery

A cemetery serves three functions: a place to bury the dead, a place to grieve and a place where history can be read and understood.

Take a step back to some of South Australia's earliest days as we take you through the history and symbolism behind some of the oldest headstones and monuments of West Terrace Cemetery and the history behind the religious groups and communities that shape the cemetery into what it is today.
