Yan Yean Cemetery is a place where family and friends can come to reflect, honour and pay tribute to their loved ones in a tranquil, calming environment.
Yan Yean Cemetery is located just outside of Whittlesea, 53 kms from Melbourne’s CBD. The cemetery is surrounded by rolling green hills and pastures. Its peaceful scenic well-kept grounds is home to over 9000 interments on an established 10 acres.
Yan Yean Cemetery offers new grave sites, as well as unused spaces in existing family plots. Our memorial options for cremated remains include our attractive rose gardens and memorial niche under already established trees.
Services can be held in our contemporary chapel, located in the centre of the grounds with available parking nearby and also on Cades Road.
The Trust is committed to its responsibility to the perpetual maintenance of the cemetery, to serve the local community by providing interment and memorialisation options to support the needs of our diverse community.
Yan Yean Cemetery's grounds tell a story of Whittlesea's history and cultural diversity, while its peaceful setting and artistic monuments make Yan Yean a fascinating place to visit all year round.
