Honoring Those Who Have Gone Before Us
Relatively new to the area, the Fargo National Cemetery is a special place for veterans to receive their
final farewell. Located at 8709 40th Ave. N., County Road 20, Harwood, N.D., the Fargo National Cemetery
officially opened on Sept. 7, 2019 with a dedication ceremony from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The
new cemetery is operated remotely by officials at the Fort Snelling National Cemetery in Minneapolis, Minn.
Prior to the new cemetery being constructed, North Dakota was one of only ten states to not have a national
veterans cemetery. Phase 1 of the construction has been completed which offers more than 3,000 casket and
cremation spaces to accommodate burials for the next ten years. The cemetery provides casket burials, in-ground
cremation burials, columbarium niches for cremation burials, and a memorial wall.
