Rosehill doesn't have as famous a burial list as Graceland nearby in Uptown, but the mix of Chicago historical figures, Civil War soldiers, and Bohemian statuary makes it worth a look. The Gothic cemetery gate was built in 1864, one of the few remaining structures from before the Great Chicago Fire.
Rosehill Cemetery is a historic rural cemetery on the North Side of Chicago, Illinois in the United States. At 350 acres (1.4 km2), it is the largest cemetery in the city of Chicago and its first private cemetery. The Entrance Gate and Administration Building, designed by William W. Boyington in the castellated Gothic style was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Rosehill Mausoleum, also known as the Community Mausoleum, was built in 1914. It is the largest mausoleum in Chicago and features several stained glass windows by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The Horatio N. May Chapel, completed in 1899, was designed in the English Gothic style by architect Joseph Lyman Silsbee. Rosehill is the final resting place of many notable individuals, including 16 Union Civil War generals, Chicago politicians, business leaders, artists, athletes, and a Vice President of the United States. Well-known names such as Oscar Mayer, Montgomery Ward and Richard Sears are interred at the cemetery. Notable monuments include several Civil War memorials and the Volunteer Firefighters' Monument. As of 2021, the cemetery has over 190,000 interments.
