I used to walk by this cemetery every day on my way to Miramar Elementary School. The PE field was across the street, separated from the cemetery by a fence. During PE, my friends Diana, Evelyn, and I would stand by the fence facing the cemetery and pray together. I don’t remember what we prayed for, but that was 48 years ago. It was kind of Creepy those childhood memory that has stayed with me all these years.The smell of decaying as we walked by.
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
