About Balmoral Cemetery

Balmoral Cemetery was established in 1874 and includes the graves of some of Brisbane's most notable pioneers. 

These include a lieutenant governor, several mayors, members of parliament, inventors and explorers. 

Also known as Bulimba Cemetery or Morningside Cemetery, the site covers 15 acres.

Balmoral Cemetery is an historic cemetery, which means no new graves are available. Burials in existing family graves may be available.
