Originally constructed as Green Hill Cemetery, this 32-acre expanse of hilly terrain and cedar trees is on the National Historic Register. 


Cedar Hill Cemetery is located on the corner of North Main Street and Constance Road and is the final resting place for many Confederate Generals and soldiers, as well as officers and soldiers from World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. The Mahan Street entrance houses monuments and a cannon that serve as a memorial to the Veterans from the various wars.


Cedar Hill is also the burial location for many prominent citizens of Suffolk, including former City and State officials such as former Governor Mills Godwin. Cedar Hill is home to several family mausoleums and very unique tombstones and structures.


Cedar Hill has the City's first scatter garden which allows the scattering of ashes in place of a burial. This scatter garden is surrounded by a wrought-iron fence, benches and a memorial board located at each end.
