Ivy Hill Cemetery is a public cemetery and crematorium[1] located at 1201 Easton Road in the Cedarbrook neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Chartered in 1867, it is 80 acres in size and was originally named the Germantown and Chestnut Hill Cemetery. It was renamed Ivy Hill Cemetery in June 1871.[2]

The gatehouse is a grand gothic archway and contains a farmhouse chapel.[1]

One cremation unit was installed in 1985 and the number has been expanded to include six cremation units.[3]

One of the notable monuments in the cemetery is of Melville H. Freas. He fought in the American Civil War as a member of the 150th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment and commissioned a life-size statue of himself in his military uniform to adorn his grave.[4]
