A stroll through Ferndale's Cemetery is a trip through the history of the town. Some of the headstones date back to the 1800s, and many of the town's first pioneers and most venerable citizens were laid to rest here. The graves are carefully tended, and you'll often find fresh flowers on even the oldest of gravestones. Take a walk among the tombstones and mausoleums, and experience the lofty vantage point; the cemetery sits on a hill overlooking the town, which affords visitors panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, the town of Ferndale, and the Eel River Valley. A beautiful, atmospheric setting for contemplation, it was also the location where important scenes were shot for Salem's Lot and The Majestic.
WHERE: Bluff Street and Craig Street, just a block away from downtown Ferndale.
