The Ararat Massis Armenian Cemetery, commonly known as the Ararat Cemetery, is an Armenian cemetery in Fresno, California. Established in 1885, the cemetery is the burial place of many prominent figures of Armenian-American history, including Soghomon Tehlirian, Victor Maghakian, and William Saroyan.[1][2][3] The Ararat Massis Cemetery was the only Armenian cemetery built outside Armenia and the Middle East for more than a century.[4][5]
