Nya Kyrkogården, established in 1913, serves as a cemetery in Västervik. It features a designated burial site for Muslims, which is the only one in Västervik Municipality. The cemetery includes the Old Chapel, constructed two years after its inauguration, reflecting its historical significance and the early 20th-century discussions surrounding the need for cemetery expansion in the area.
Managed by the cemetery administration, Nya Kyrkogården offers various services to the community, including a platform for feedback and inquiries related to the site. Additionally, it provides a calendar for events and activities, allowing visitors to stay informed about happenings at the cemetery. As part of the Södra Tjusts pastorat, Nya Kyrkogården is designed to accommodate the growing needs for burial space in the region and includes a virtual tour option for those interested in exploring the site remotely.
