Lynden Cemetery Tours

Cemetery Tours of the Lynden Cemetery are on every Saturday at 11:00 a.m. and are presented by a volunteer in a period costume from the Lynden Heritage Museum during the months of May thru October. For those who prefer to explore at their own pace, self-guided tours will also be offered throughout the year. Self-guided tours will be in the receptacle on the front of the office building at both Greenwood and Lynden cemeteries. Tours, both guided and self-guided, are free and open to the public. Walking shoes are recommended as the terrain may be uneven. Reservations are not necessary for the regular Saturday tours, although you may call the Museum at 360-354-3675 for private tours for groups of five or more. The Lynden Cemetery has been named to the Washington Heritage Register, and there is a bronze plaque located on the north side of the building showing that honor. It is the only cemetery in Whatcom County to receive this recognition.
