Description:
Calvary Cemetery in Santa Barbara was dedicated in 1896. It is
the Archdiocese's second oldest cemetery and was founded by a Jesuit
priest and botanist, Father Stockman. The selection of the site on North
Hope Avenue allow the towering Santa Ynez Mountains to provide a
dramatic backdrop for this cemetery.
Among the many features at
Calvary are the Stations of the Cross. Miniature statuary help us
visualize what happened as Jesus carried His Cross the one-quarter mile
from the Praetorium of Pilate to Calvary.
