This place is amazing! Respectful resting place of the stars, plus art, architecture, and acres of manicured grass. Worth a visit, youll be surprised with what you see! Sorry no interior pix, please respect their No Photography request.

Really awesome. Really cool sights, paintings, and sculptures. The big one at the end is cool too but the guy they have partraying Jesus sounds either like a villain from an old James bond movie or someone from a biker gang. Something along those lines. A little weird... BUT really cool. Would definitely go again.

Went to the world cup exhibit. Although small it was nicely done and you cant really complain since its free. Nice views at the top and not too hard to get to just follow the signs to the top of Forest lawn. The exhibit consisted of two rooms of FIFA history

Huge panoramic crucifixion painting by Jan Styka - unforgettable!! Beautiful place to visit. Art museum, store, views of Glendale, California.

So beautiful! Rolling hills, sweeping vistas and lots and lots of dead people. Underground of course but oh theyre there! Still, its quite tranquil. At the top resides a small.museum and a chapel and an unparalleled view of Glendale and downtown L.A. The chapel is a copy of an old English church from the 900s and the museum has an actual Easter Island statue as well as some gorgeous bronze and marble sculptures. Also up top is two GIGANTIC paintings of the crucifixion, one that was lost for decades which is so large and long it was wrapped around a telephone pole until it was rediscovered and a companion piece painted specifically for the cavernous hall built around it. All in all Id say Forest Lawn Glendale is well worth the visit even if you dont have someone to bury which while it may be the reason the place exists it has much more to offer than dirt.

Beautiful area with tons of little areas such as museums and statues that you can learn a lot from.

A free museum that offers so much that it seems like it being free is almost a crime. My favorite part is the amazing view of Glendale from the open space right in front of the museums entry way. There is plenty of parking. The views on a clear day are exhilarating.

I bin the many time but i didnt pay attention to go inside the museum so this was first time i have the time to visit its not big but its interesting and the have merchandise you can purchase and on the back you can see nice views.

Beautiful cemetary. Could not find any stars buried.

A great free Museum with an amazing view. They often have really interesting and cool exhibits that stick around for a few months before being replaced. Give this place a look if you have the chance.

Best sunset and now the have a national geographic exhibition from woman photographers

Beautiful place !! Great grandparents are there and the view of the city and surrounding area is amazing

Hidden treasure. Beautiful and peaceful.

An amazing experience, the painting of the crucifixion was very moving and breathtaking. Visiting the mausoleum was also very worth seeing a life size replica of the last supper in stained glass is an experience you wont soon forget. If you have an extra couple of hours this place is very worth the time to visit.

An amazing view and museum that offers a different exhibit about four times a year along with a permanent collection. Ive walked 7 miles just exploring and always see something new and delightful.

I love this place and its history. I appreciate the visiting art shows but I do miss the treasures that have been removed to make space for those art shows

Beautiful museum with fantastic exhibits

This is the most beautiful cemetery Ive been to

One of the best cemeteries in the world. The final resting place of the rich, famous, notorious & those who could afford it. Beautiful landscape, churches & masoleums.

Good place always good events

Michael Jacksons tomb is located inside Holly Terrace mausoleum and is closed to the public. They also have a public museum in the next building over where Elizabeth Taylor is entombed (no pictures, security is watching on CCTV)

Best kept secret in LA. Peaceful and tranquil.

The areal photography exhibit was not to my liking. I thought it was boring. They usually have better exhibits. Always nice to visit for peace and quietness.

Its a park! Yes, we dont tend see places of worship and burial as parks but thats exactly what Forest Lawn is....a park. Place of comfort. If you get to cross the majestic gates...over seeing the water ponds....make your way up the hill to the museum. Grand views of Glendale overlooking toward the San Gabriel Mountains. Beautiful place...may the souls that are there rest in peace.

Great museum. Scenic location looking over the city.

It was a very nice experience....will be back!

Ive been coming here for close to 10 years now, visiting my grandfathers grave. Back then the price for a burial spot was about 8K to 10K. Now its most likely doubled. The crew that works on the trimmings & maintenance are very diligent & get things done day to day basiss. I appreciate the management staff here, for assistance when a few years back the Terracotta flower bowl I would place on my grandfathers grave got moved to a different persons headstone. Having realized the workers moved it when they run the grass trimming tractor, so they wouldnt run over it, placed the pot back on the wrong grave. Once I talked with the management that never happened again. I still think the workers are doing an excellent job on keeping the place looking very neat & tide.

Not sure about the museum part of that description, but this is where my Dad is buried & sleeps there eternally now!

Forest Lawn is not only a beautiful cemetery, but it also has beautiful murals and museums!

Its a family tradition especially for Easter service. They sing and and tell a beautiful story about Jesus our Lord and savior. Theyve painted a huge mural its beautiful it tells you the story of Jesus and his Journey and his resurrection and how he lived. They have two session Early morning it at 5am for Spanish. English serves I believe its a 8am. Must come and see. So breath taking.

Beautiful art, great location, friendly staff

The food is excellent. Service is slow.

If you havent had a chance to visit the Hall of Crucifixion and Resurrection, I highly recommend it. There is a true one of a kind piece of art there that will blow your mind,just on sheer scale...but the story of how it got from Poland to L.A. is incredibly interesting too!

Love to come & see the crucifixion & resurrection paintings. Also the Last Supper stained glass. Staff are kind & courteous.

Amazing collection of art. Among masterpieces The Crucifixion, a gigantic canvas by Polish painter Jan Styka.

I like coming here so that i can cry freely talking to my Lord JESUS and no One will interrupt me or ask why am i crying and so because is a quiet place and peaceful as well i keep coming

Nice funeral home

Beautiful landscape, statues, museum lovely place

My Grandpa used to work here many years ago. And as kids, my brother and I would visit him and my Grandma (who is buried here). Even to this day, I still enjoy it. Its such a beautiful serene place to visit

Museum is great, the community programs are great and well organized

AWESOME. LOVELY view

If you havent seen the Hall of the Crucifixion / Resurrection, its a must see. The staff is very gracious and this historical monumental painting is fascinating to look at. Each year, Forrest Lawn hosts The Masters University Singers to perform a concert the week before Easter. The tickets are free and its a must see.

Its a hidden gem in Glendale. Were gifted with this beautiful view on opening reception nights.

Interesting place. Not much going on. But weird walking through the cemetery when people are mourning. Very peaceful.

Nice view from museum

Amazing performance and sounds from the Masters University orchestra and choir. A celebration of the Resurrection not to be missed!!

This is so much more than just a Mortuary. There are museums and statues that are exact replicas of for example David. It is very peaceful here so good for mediating as well.

Cozy museum but often manipulates space well enough to allow plenty to see. Permanent collection and changing exhibits. Perfect if you have little ones/toddlers as the visit itself is not especially long.

Forest Lawn Glendale is a very beautiful and peaceful cemetery. It is always open to public and has a wonderful musuem. The views are also spectacular.

Lovely place to visit wow the view is a 360 of Los Angeles. Such a history of LA. in this museum....my Brother is RIP. thete on Brotherly Lane....& my Family plot is thete

Amazing! Love it. Im having a great time with my daughter here. Love it!

For what it is (Cemetery Museum), for what they have (some truly awesome pieces), and for the price (free), they get top marks. You could easily spend an hour here, and the main exhibits change periodically, so visit every 6 months, you will find something of interest.

MY BROTHER REST IN PEACE!

We just lost our 95 year old grandma and forest lawn couldnt have made this difficult time any easier. Great staff, beautiful place.

The pastor was very cordial and organized. He had a melodious singing voice and this added to the reverence of the service. Beautiful chapel, the Church of the recessional.

One of the most beautiful cemeteries in the United States. Build with more in mind than just a reading place for the dead, it is home to the largest painting of the Crucifixion, as well as being the resting place for more than 333,000.

Great place to stay long term haha beautiful place great people, Ill miss you Dad.

A historic place where the Reagans got married in a nearby chapel.

Very nicely kept place, interesting museum and free.Shame the celebs buried here arent obvious to find but after all this is not a tourist attraction.

Fantastic small art museum. Make sure to show up at the top of the hour to view the crucifixion and resurrection paintings.

My family is buried there and its a place where you feel at peace.

Although odd that its housed within a cemetery, the Forest Lawn Museum is home to Jan Stykas painting of The Crucifixion, the largest framed mounted to canvas painting in the world. Jan Styka is a Polish Painter who produced large historical, battle-piece, and Christian religious panoramas.A beautiful, big mural with a short video before its reveal to give everyone in the audience some context. The short film and reveal are free. Just be sure to google what time the museum opens and presents the panorama as its scheduled.

A favorite destination for searching out “easter eggs”.

The revealing of the mural is awesome, I didnt think it would be so huge

Nice place to visit

Cool hiking and reflection spot. Its a long walk of you have small kids. Too much to see in one trip!

Nice place to go with the kids and see all timers good soccer players.

This museum is definitely worth a stop, its free and has world class art and photography exhibit, in a peaceful, contemplative atmosphere, with breath taking views.

Very solemn well maintained areas for families to pay respect to loved ones. Well worth the money

This place is like a forest so well kept grounds..staff here is very helpful.

Very nice and peaceful place to vist I go with my kids, there is a lot to learn from The museum.

This is a wonderful place to visit. Its so peaceful .there are wonderful gardens, museums, statues and views of Glendale.

Nice and very tranquil atmosphere

Its closed for renovation :(

Rest in peace . to every1. Nice place.

Thus place is beautiful and full of history

Wow! Great artwork.

Beautiful gardens with great views of the city. Get a map at the info booth or the front desk because you are going to get lost

One of the most beautiful cemeteries I have ever seen.

Theyre free museums show a variety of cool things to bring in the public for example the beginning of January through April I believe theyre having a free Charlie Brown peanuts theme

Amazing place

Beautiful historical structure and fine artwork throughout..

A must see....rather hard to navigate. Grounds are so gorgeous and well landscaped.....

This is a difficult one to review as I was here to pay respects to departed family members. Aside from that aspect, its got s few lovely chapels to see and it has s replica of the last supper.

Good place to have family members Rest In peace and have a decent farewell

Beautiful grounds, but easy to get lost if not paying attention

Best free museum in the area. Plus lots of dead folk

A unique experience- beautiful, peaceful . A must -visit place

Best place to rest. Peacefully and quietly

A beautiful location, amazing collection that is always an display. And collections that change.

Terrific art displays.

Amazing museum and beautiful views! One of my favorite places in LA!

Beautiful setting, beautiful views, lovely artwork.

Really nice and cozy museum with an excellent view of Glendale.

Hidden Gem, great experience!

Weird little museum with gift shop on the middle of a graveyard
