A cemetery museum is a graveyard where the cemetery itself is the museum. As most other types of museums its purpose is to educate the visitor, in this case, in the history of the cemetery and/or the people interred in it. It does this by raising public interest of the cemetery, exposing the role it may have played at some point in history, and by promoting the history behind it. They are generally cemeteries that have become tourist attractions. Given their nature, cemetery museums fall under the broader category of open air museums.
