Vito Corleone's fictional burial in "The Godfather" would have occurred here.
There are, of course, real burials here. Most of them are unmarked.
If you decide to visit this site on your Godfather tour of New York, please do so with respect for the grounds. Calvary is a place of endless beauty, as I have found in my years roaming the grounds. I hope you will find time to discover what an amazing place this is, if not in person than vicariously through my Photos of Calvary Cemetery, Queens NYC

The Beauty of Old Calvary
Last week I drove down from my home in Connecticut to 1st Calvary Cemetery to see the grave site of my great grandparents in section 4B. Old Calvary Cemetery is indeed an amazing and beautiful place. The background of the BQE and Kosciusco Bridge brought the image of the Corleone Funeral back in my mind. I later did some investigating and found your web site. Thank you for the photographs and the research you have done on the mausoleums and other monuments.
