St Thomas Rest Park

St Thomas Rest Park is a unique combination of history and recreation in the heart of Crows Nest. This first European cemetery on Sydney's north shore has been transformed into a fascinating park with preserved gravestones of historical figures, including Alexander Berry.

The historic 1850 Sexton's Cottage functions as a museum, and a history trail with information boards tells the story of the site. Families will enjoy the fenced-in retro-style playground, and strollers will appreciate the scenic alleys.

The park also offers restrooms, benches and picnic tables, creating the perfect place to relax and contemplate the past.
