The many communities within the Anglican and General sections are interred across the cemetery in various sections. You can see these sections in more detail on our map. Other religions are buried within the four Denominational Trusts that manage the rest of Rookwood Cemetery.
Most of our sections are named by ethnic background (and hence are self-explanatory) however there are some sections with their own names:
| Chapel Rose Garden, Memorial Court Garden, Niche Wall |
| for ashes; non-denominational |
| Children's Lawn |
| for infants; non-denominational |
| Granite Lawns, Magnolia Grove, Remembrance Lawns |
| consecrated grounds; ordained Christian minister to |
| preside over service |
| Imperial Gardens |
| Asian |
