About Camperdown Cemetery

A cemetery with about 18000 burials; many of them Royalty, is sure to gain public attention. The kin that made history, found their last home here and thus the cemetery became a historic site of the country. Located in an inner-city suburb of Sydney, New South Wales, this graveyard pays homage to all those who contributed in reviving ancient Australia. Every inch of this final resting place conceals stories untold and secrets unrevealed. The place is visited by numerous tourists to witness the grandeur of the superstars of the country resting peacefully and acknowledged gracefully. Giving it due respect the place holds the bodies of 121 people who lost their life with The Sinking of the Dunbar, referred to as the Australian Titanic.
