Mount
Mora Cemetery, established in 1851, is the oldest operating cemetery
in Saint Joseph, Missouri. It is listed in the National Register
of Historic Places and is an interpretive site of The St.
Joseph Museums, Inc. Mount Mora was once the most fashionable burial
place for many of St. Joseph's wealthy and powerful citizens. The
boom years of the post Civil War period, known as St. Joseph's
"Golden
Age," gave rise to the building of some of the finest residential
architecture in the Midwest, and to some of the finest tomb architecture
as well. More Info... |
