Centrally located in downtown Bethlehem, God’s Acre Cemetery sits on 3.17 acres of land. God’s Acre is peaceful, with 2,716 burials in neat rows, with low, flat, uniform and simply carved tombstones dating from 1742-1910.

In this tour, you will explore the oldest cemetery in Bethlehem, and the ways it was an integral part of community and daily life. This tour will take you to the burials of notable and less well-known Moravian individuals, whose stories help illustrate the history of the settlement in this area of Pennsylvania.
