In 1940, West End Cemetery was established on 23 acres of property located off West Lee Highway. Later in 1957, the Town of Wytheville took over its operation and maintenance. The cemetery is divided into eight sections with additional areas reserved for future development. In 1995, the West End Memorial Mausoleum was completed as part of the cemetery grounds with a total of 140 crypts and 28 urn niches. Interestingly, the second largest white ash tree on record in Virginia is believed to be located within the cemetery grounds. It is thought to be approximately 300 years old.
