History

Established in the late 50s, Forest Lawn Memorial Garden Central is the 2nd oldest cemetery in Fort Lauderdale.

The stately mausoleum was constructed in 3 phases. The initial phase began in the mid 70s and the final phase was completed in the late 80s. It was the first mausoleum in Fort Lauderdale and the only one for several years.

Sweeping cemetery grounds surround the main mausoleum, which serves as a central focal point for the park. The cemetery has several historical sections where many early Fort Lauderdale pioneers are buried. The cemetery is the final resting place of professional boxer and former World Heavyweight Champion, Rocco Francis Marchegiano—better known as Rocky Marciano.
