The Slocan Village Cemetery was established near the turn of the century. The area was founded in 1892.

In 1942 when the Japanese-Canadians were interned, there was a large population housed in and around Slocan City. At the back of the Village of Slocan Cemetery is the only surviving Buddhist Cemetery from this era.

There are approximately 300 gravesites and is still active today.
