- Le cimetière de Rosehill (en anglais : Rosehill Cemetery) est un cimetière de la ville de Chicago, dans l'État de l'Illinois, aux États-Unis. Il se trouve au 5800 Ravenswood Avenue, dans la partie nord de Lincoln Square, un secteur du North Side de la ville. Conçu par l'architecte William W. Boyington, le cimetière est classé sur la liste du Registre national des lieux historiques (National Register of Historic Places ; NRHP) en 1975 par le National Park Service et sur celle des Chicago Landmarks (CL) en 1980 par la Commission on Chicago Landmarks de la ville de Chicago. La porte monumentale en pierre (Rosehill Gate Entrance) qui constitue l'entrée principale du cimetière de Rosehill est un exemple rare d'architecture gothique à créneaux dans le Midwest américain. Le cimetière se trouve à Rosehill, un petit quartier résidentiel du secteur de Lincoln Square, qui est constitué d'une multitude de maisons individuelles différentes et dont l'architecture couvre plusieurs décennies depuis les années 1890.

- Rosehill Cemetery (founded 1859) is an American garden cemetery on the North Side of Chicago, Illinois, and at 350 acres (1.4 km2), is the largest cemetery in the City of Chicago. According to legend, the name "Rosehill" resulted from a City Clerk's error – the area was previously called "Roe's Hill", named for nearby farmer Hiram Roe. He refused to sell his land to the city until it was promised that the cemetery be named in his honor. It is located in the north east section of the Lincoln Square community area. Rosehill's Joliet-limestone entrance gate (added in 1864) was designed by William W. Boyington, the architect of the Chicago Water Tower and the Old University of Chicago, who is buried in Rosehill. The Rosehill Cemetery Administration Building and Entry Gate was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Like its sister cemetery Graceland, Rosehill is the burial place of many well-known Chicagoans. The cemetery contains many monuments that are notable for their beauty and eccentricity, such as that of Lulu Fellows. The cemetery is also the final resting place of 61 victims of the Iroquois Theatre fire, in which over 600 people died. Several graves, gravestones and monuments from the old City Cemetery, originally located in what is now Lincoln Park were relocated to Rosehill Cemetery. (en)
