Eugene Masonic Cemetery

Full of Life

This community treasure is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Remarkably, it is also an active, operating cemetery. Established in 1859, Eugene’s first cemetery includes pioneers, such as city founder Eugene Skinner, and modern notables like blues disc jockey “Rooster” Gavin Fox.

The cemetery retains “Masonic” in its name, as an important historic reference, but is no longer officially affiliated. Through the on-going work of many, the historical importance and natural beauty of this woodland setting are being rediscovered and protected.

Hope Abbey Mausoleum is open to the public from 1 to 4 pm on the last Sunday of each month, except December. Check in at the garden shed kiosk.

You are invited to get involved. Browse this web site and discover the many facets of this fine historic place. We are especially proud of our beautifully illustrated book, Full of Life: The History and Character of Eugene's Masonic Cemetery.
