Holy Trinity Bukowinian Orthodox Cemetery was established in 1931. It is the oldest Orthodox cemetery in the Ottawa region.
It served the Orthodox parishes of Christ The Saviour and Holy Trinity. Both churches were located near the downtown area.
Holy Trinity was founded in 1914 to minister to the needs of Bukowinian-Ukrainian immigrants. Christ the Saviour was founded in 1968. The two parishes shared the cemetery until they merged in 2003.
The cemetery sits on about 2 acres of land and has about 825 graves.
The only signage is located on the cemetery chapel just inside the gate.
