This 142-acres cemetery dates back to 1850. Some interments were transferred from earlier burial grounds in Pittsfield. This cemetery was designed in the
rural cemetery style with winding roads, many hills and gorgeous vegetation. In the early twentieth century, the Olmstead Brothers provided landscape design for newer sections. In 2007, Pittsfield Cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
The cemetery gate is open from 8:00 in the morning until sunset. The cemetery office is open from 8:00 until 4:30 on weekdays and until noon on Saturdays.
