A graveyard within San Antonio city limits is nothing new — only because most of them are old.

Cemeteries like San Fernando Cemetery No. 1 and a collection of cemeteries on the East Side go back decades and even centuries, and predate state laws that came later and changed where a cemetery could be built.

In 2023, those rules were altered again when the Texas Legislature passed House Bill 783 allowing cemeteries to once again be established within city limits.
