Oakwood Cemetery Austin, Minnesota

Oakwood Cemetery was created in 1862 with the first idea for it coming from the women of Austin, Minnesota. They believed that Oakwood should be a quiet, dignified place of rest for their loved ones. We at Oakwood strive daily to keep the cemetery as it was intended to be. We try to give the cemetery the highest level of care, while ever mindful of the cost of the care. This has made us the financially secure cemetery we are today. Oakwood Cemetery sets aside 25% of the proceeds from lot sales into an account for the perpetual care of the cemetery. Oakwood Cemetery is a non-profit association governed by lot owners.
