History
In the early 1900's, the Centro Asturiano Society petitioned City Council to set aside and dedicate a piece of land for the Society to use as a burial ground for their members. The City decided to donate the land to the Society now known as Centro Asturiano Cemetery. In the 1940's, the Centro Asturiano Society opened a new cemetery known as Centro Asturiano Cemetery Memorial Park located off Dr. Martin Luther King Blvd. Some time later, the Society handed the original Centro Asturiano Cemetery back to the City.
