Oakwood Cemetery Chapel
Oakwood Cemetery Chapel offers a thoughtful window into Austin history inside the city’s oldest municipal burial ground. The restored 1914 chapel stands among graves of early civic leaders and communities whose stories were not always preserved equally. Exhibits and educational programs explore the cemetery, archaeology discovered during restoration, and the people remembered across the grounds. Visit quietly, respect active memorial spaces, and pair the chapel with a reflective walk beneath.
