Visiting Elmwood
Any time our front gate is unlocked, you are welcome to explore respectfully. Only in cases of poor weather will we close our gates. We ask you not to bring dogs or pets into the cemetery.
We thank you for helping us keep our grounds clean by using the recycling and garbage bins available.
In the late fall, Elmwood asks that all flowers and memorials be removed from the gravesites for the winter period.

Elmwood Cemetery Walking Tour
Using the Driftscape app on your phone, step back in time as you explore the stories written in stone at Elmwood Cemetery, where the rich history of our community comes alive through the lives of approximately 10,000 individuals who rest here.
An online version is available on your computer.
We thank the Town of Perth for making this available to us.


Through our Gates ...
We invite you to visit Elmwood Cemetery in person. Walking the grounds, reading the monuments, and observing family groupings can reveal connections that are not always evident in written records. Many visitors find that time spent here brings a deeper understanding of their family’s place in Perth’s history.
