Steeped in history and comprising 65 serene acres, Valley Forge Memorial Gardens has served families in King of Prussia and its surrounding communities since 1915. As a nonsectarian cemetery, complete with water features, newly developed estate options and a stately mausoleum, Valley Forge Memorial Gardens is a peaceful place to entrust the care of yourself or a loved one. From ground burial options to the latest in cremation options, Valley Forge Memorial Gardens accommodates your and your family members’ wishes with the utmost dignity and compassion.

Many burial and cremation options

Throughout our century of service, we've responded to the evolving needs of the King of Prussia community. We provide the goods and services families today look for—whether it's traditional burial, mausoleum entombment or cremation memorialization. Level bronze memorials allow us to maintain a tranquil, park-like appearance throughout the majority of the cemetery property. Areas for upright granite monuments, cremation benches, columbarium estates and private estates allow you to design a unique feature that accommodates your family's wishes.

History

Historical Valley Forge Memorial Gardens, located in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, was established in 1915 on farmland that dates back to the late 1600s. John Roberts, a Welshman, arrived in the King of Prussia area in 1682 and operated a farm and grist mill, part of which is now the site of Valley Forge Memorial Gardens. John Roberts married Elizabeth Owen, and together they had 3 children.

Founded in 1915

Several years later, the farm, which was previously known as Swamp Vrass Farm, was decreased and acreage was sold. In 1912, Judson Kerr purchased the 168-acre property and sold 81 acres to Valley Forge Cemetery Association in 1915.

Honoring our legacy

Today, we are a proud member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers. At Valley Forge Memorial Gardens, we have proudly served the King of Prussia community for more than 100 years.

Since 2005, many of our customers have taken the time to tell us how we did each year via our Voice of the Customer program. Our star ratings and comments from families come directly from these surveys.

"Due to COVID and the fact that none of us live in Pennsylvania we elected to have a ceremonial burial for my Mother. GG explained how everything would work, she notified me when my Mom's ashes arrived, she confirmed the flower delivery and assured me everything would be taken care of properly. One of my brothers ended up driving up there and said everything was handled beautifully."

"The reason we were not contacted or met with anyone in person is because my Father made the arrangements in 2002. Once he passed and contacted Valley Forge Everything went smoothly. Thank you."

"Most of the contact with Memorial Gardens was between you and my funeral director. He was very pleased. Everything went very smoothly especially since we were coming from a distance."

"Thanks to all the staff from GG to the woman who was there throughout as we performed our service and the Two grounds keepers. Everyone was so caring and polite which made our saying our final goodbyes easier. Valley Forge Memorial Gardens are well kept as well as each grave site. Such a peaceful, soothing place where the birds, butterflies, bees come to add more beauty and comfort to loved ones final resting place. Thank you,"
