Valhalla Cemetery

Location

Valhalla Memorial Gardens is located on the northwest side of Milwaukee at 5402 N. 91st St..

History

The cemetery was formerly owned by Valhalla Memorial Gardens Inc. In 2007, the 80-acre property was sold to Bronzestone Group of Nashotah, the cemetery arm of Granite Resources Corp at a cost of $800,000. Half of the property is occupied by graves, the remaining land is open. The site also includes a crematorium. Prior to the purchase the memorial park was not well-maintained. Bronzestone plans to spend about $200,000 to improve its appearance and infrastructure.
