Calgary's History

Only cemetery located south Calgary

Welcome to St. Patrick Cemetery, a cherished heritage of Calgary’s enduring history. Established in 1904, our sacred grounds have witnessed the passage of time and embraced the stories of generations. As a designated Provincial Historic Resource, we honour the legacy of St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church, the city’s oldest surviving Catholic place of worship. Through diligent restoration efforts, we have preserved the essence of this hallowed site and its surrounding structures, keeping its former splendor alive.

Under the visionary guidance of Father Albert Lacombe, who ministered from 1909 to 1916, our church served as a beacon of hope for both Indigenous communities and settlers, leaving an indelible mark on our shared heritage. Today, we carry forth this legacy, providing a tranquil resting place for your loved ones and offering services that include traditional burial plots, columbarium, and our newly introduced Ashery service. Join us as we honor memories and celebrate lives in this serene sanctuary.
