Wenatchee City Cemetery is located southwest of the intersection of N. Western Ave. and Maiden Lane in Wenatchee, Chelan County, WA comprising Sections 29 and 32, T23N, R20E. The Wenatchee Cemetery first operated as a private facility, with the earliest sales dating back to August 1895. Also beginning around 1895, remains from private burial grounds throughout the Wenatchee Valley were relocated to this new, permanent location. In 1916 Members of Dan McCook Post #105 and the Women’s Relief Corps #15, Department of Washington and Alaska erected a monument honoring Grand Army of the Republic veterans.
 Affiliated with the Cemetery but located at 850 South Miller Avenue, is the Home Of Peace Mausoleum. It was constructed in 1916. The private Cemetery operated on its own until it could no longer keep pace with demand and the growth of the community. In 1929, the City of Wenatchee acquired and began operating the facility. In 1944 the property for the Veteran Memorial Section was purchased and developed. In 1948, the section was dedicated to all war veterans. The Veterans Memorial Monument was sponsored by the Veterans Organizations and Auxiliary Groups and unveiled on Memorial Day, 1953.
Located on the west side of the Cemetery is Babyland. This section was dedicated in 1947. Lullabyland is the newest baby section and is located at the North end of the Cemetery. The Hillcrest Mausoleum was dedicated in 1963. It contains both crypts and cremation niches. A cremation niche wall is located southwest of the Mausoleum. It was created in 2006. In-ground cremation plots are also available in both Section F and the Veterans Section. A new Cemetery office building was constructed in 2018.
