Roselawn, located on East Mulberry, was established by a private association in 1947 to accommodate additional burial space and provide a garden-type cemetery.
The City of Fort Collins took over the operation of Roselawn in 1959. To alleviate a high water table in the area, the facility was equipped with an underground tile drain system and has not experienced high water levels in over 30 years.
Roselawn provides nearly 30 acres of beautiful trees and shrubs, manicured lawns, and a magnificent view of the foothills. Over 2700 burials have been performed at the cemetery, and many improvements have been made to enhance the landscape and entrance to the facility.
Roselawn is operated by the City of Fort Collins Parks and Recreation Department. For further information, call the Cemetery Division.
