Merivale Public Cemetery is the largest of three contiguous cemeteries in the former village of Merivale (Nepean Township, Carleton County, Ontario, Canada) just south of the intersection of Merivale Road and Hunt Club Road West. All of the former municipalities within Carleton County (including the cemeteries) were amalgamated into the City of Ottawa in 2001.
This cemetery is one of three adjoining cemeteries known collectively as the "Merivale Cemeteries", where many pioneers of this area found their final resting places. The other two are St. John the Divine Anglican Church Cemetery and Merivale United Church Cemetery now managed by Merivale Fallowfield United Church. The first recorded burial in the Merivale Cemeteries is that of John Bell, an Anglican who died in 1847.
A fourth cemetery not directly adjoining the Merivale Cemeteries is the Holy Trinity Bukovynian Orthodox Cemetery, established in 1931 and located further south, at 1890 Merivale Road.
Merivale Public Cemetery is currently managed by Pinecrest Remembrance Services thus is sometimes known as Merivale Pinecrest Cemetery or Pinecrest Merivale Cemetery.
