Bellefontaine Cemetery is a nonprofit, non-denominational cemetery and arboretum in St. Louis, Missouri. Founded in 1849 as a rural cemetery , Bellefontaine has several architecturally significant monuments and mausoleums such as the Louis Sullivan -designed Wainwright Tomb , which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places .
As a result, there was an entry through the east wall, which has since been closed. When founded, the cemetery was well outside the city limits of Chicago. After the Great Chicago Fire in 1871, Lincoln Park, which had been the city's cemetery, was deconsecrated and some of the bodies were reinterred to Graceland Cemetery. [citation needed]
