About the Cemetery

The cemetery land was purchased in 1942 and was consecrated as an Orthodox Christian Cemetery in 1943, with the first burial taking place the same year. It is a privately owned by Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, located at 302 West North Avenue, Pittburgh, PA. Burials are open to Orthodox Christians and their non-Orthodox Christian spouses and family with burials conforming to the strict canons of the Greek Orthodox Church. Memorial headstones have combinations of Greek and English, with some totally in the Greek alphabet. Presently there are over 700 persons buried at the Cemetery with many headstones showing that immigrants came from mainland Greece and the many Aegean islands and with names varying from Alexandropoulos to Zafeiropoulos.

The Saint George Chapel

In 2005, a significant addition to the cemetery and the Holy Trinity community was made with the construction of the Saint George Greek Orthodox Chapel. Located on the grounds of the cemetery, it is used for funerals, interments, Saturday of the Souls Memorial Services, the annual Saint George Feast Day and other liturgical occasions. More information on the chapel can be found here.
