==History==
It was originally established as a private cemetery in 1849, with a design by Henry A. S. Dearborn, noted designer of Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was purchased by the city of Lynn in 1855.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MACRIS inventory record for Pine Grove Cemetery )〕 In 1930, a wall was built by the WPA to surround the cemetery, and according to ''Ripley's Believe It or Not!'' it is the “second-longest contiguous stone wall in the world,” second only to the Great Wall of China. The cemetery got its name from the plethora of pine trees surrounding Rhodes Memorial Chapel and the cemetery's entrance. The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
