Dunedin Municipal Cemetery

Welcome to Dunedin Municipal Cemetery

Located at 2400 Keene Road, Dunedin, Florida, the Dunedin Municipal Cemetery offers a serene and historic final resting place for the community. Nestled between Keene Road and Jerry Lake, this 7.75-acre cemetery has been a cornerstone of Dunedin's heritage since its maintenance began by the city in 1927. With over 2,500 interments, it serves as the eternal home to many of Dunedin's pioneer families and notable historical figures.
