Yagoto Cemetery (Japanese: 八事霊園, Yagoto Reien) is one of the largest cemeteries in Nagoya, central Japan. It is located in the neighbourhood of Yagoto.
The cemetery was established in 1915 during the Taisho era. As a Buddhist cemetery, the remains of the deceased are cremated in the crematorium of the cemetery and the ashes laid to rest at the tomb. Most of the graves are family tombs.
Because of the rapidly aging population, there are plans to construct a second crematorium, which has met local opposition.
