Mount Royal Cemetery is a large multi-denominational cemetery located at 1297 chemin de la Forêt, Outremont, Montreal, Quebec H2V 2P9. It contains Jewish burials in various sections, but section D3 is devoted to Temple Emanu-El/Beth Sholom, a Reform synagogue located at 4100 Sherbrooke St. West in Westmount, Quebec H3Z 1A5. Phone: 514-937-3675 Fax: 514-937-7058. Temple Emanu-El is the oldest Reform synagogue in Canada, incorporated 1882 or 1883. In 1980, it merged with Temple Beth Sholom, a Reform synagogue in Montreal.
In addition to the section in Mount Royal Cemetery, which historically has served Temple Emanu-El, the Temple administers two newer cemetery sections in Eternal Gardens Memorial Park in Beaconsfield, Quebec, one previously serving Temple Beth Sholom, and a newer one serving Temple Emanu-El.
Data for Temple Emanu-El/Beth Sholom was added with the help of Alan Greenberg. Photos are planned for 2024.
