The current St Benedict's Abbey Cemetery is actually the 'new' cemetery. The original one was located on the bluff overlooking the Missouri River, just east of the present Library building.
The current cemetery was laid out in 1964 by Father Angelus Lingenfelser, O.S.B., and with the help of several brothers, the remains from the old cemetery were moved to the new one.
The current cemetery is located to the north of the Abbey.
Please note:
St Benedict's Abbey Cemetery is for burial of Monks of St. Benedict's.
