Grove Hill Cemetery is the oldest of its kind in the city with tombstones dating back to 1703. This small graveyard is dotted with many trees and was called The Old Burial Ground. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. Some of the graves belong to revolutionary war soldiers. It is also the resting place of Nathaniel Banks, Waltham's most famous citizen who was a Civil War hero and the governor of Massachusetts. Occasional tours are given by the Waltham Historical Society who offer interesting anecdotes of the cemetery residents.
