Miami City Cemetery

The Miami City Cemetery. On the road that leads to the Winwood neighborhood going north along N Miami Ave, a few hundred meters before the Lock & Load Miami (Weapons Museum), a gate appears on the right that opens onto a small historic cemetery. Overall it is well maintained with numerous graves of American soldiers who fell in World War II, headstones and mausoleums.
I found it to be the oldest cemetery and is the first and only municipal cemetery in Miami-Dade County.
It is worth a visit and a walk in the silence and serenity that characterizes every cemetery.

For mis brujas, the cemetery is excellent to visit. The plant life is wonderful, the energy is amazing, lots of different sections easy to find. Just please, DONT TRASH THE PLACE. Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but memories

If you are a history buff, like me then you should visit here. It is located in Downtown Miami so near plenty of other places of interest. There are two entrances and it makes for a very pleasant walk from one entrance to the other. Other people have listed a lot of information already about the history, but I found this little nugget..see below. The most puzzling grave in the cemetery is the one belonging to Carrie Miller, a room-size monolith that reads, "THE BODY OF CARRIE BARRETT MILLER WAS MOULDED IN THIS SOLID BLOCK OF CONCRETE--DECEMBER 4TH.1926. AFTER THE BODY HAS GONE TO DUST HER SLEEPING FORM WILL REMAIN."
