Mount Olivet's 130 acres of beautiful wooded grounds were dedicated on May 1, 1907, as the first endowment care cemetery of this area. Located in the historic North Side of Fort Worth, Mount Olivet is one of our area's most historic landmarks.
As you enter its gates, you are welcomed by Mount Olivet's beautiful floral gardens. Continuing on through the cemetery you will appreciate the park's natural beauty and the contribution that is made by the statuary artwork. From the Dough Boy and American G.I. statues that host one of the state's oldest and largest Memorial Day gatherings, to the ducks and swans on the lake, Mount Olivet is an oasis of beauty in Fort Worth's historic North Side.
You are sure to marvel at the majestic relief carving of Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece depicting the Last Supper, created by distinguished Italian sculptor Giuseppe Solari. Like an expertly placed flower in a garden, it graces the expansive lawn of the cemetery's Garden of Memories. Beautiful statuary, family monuments and constant year round maintenance of the grounds are but a few of the many benefits that a not-for-profit organization provides.
