Saint Roches Cemetery is a graveyard located in New Orleans. The Survivors are forced to pass through this cemetery after the interstate freeway to the bridge was destroyed by the military during a bomb run seen in the chapter, The Cemetery in Left 4 Dead 2.
History[]
This cemetery is one of the oldest locations of Louisiana, used to bury the deceased citizens of New Orleans, and famous for its architecture. It is a large and open area mostly filled with tombs and mausoleums and features a monument at the center of the graveyard. The graveyard features abundant plant life and trees that cover the walls and tombstones.
Current Status[]
The Survivors must pass through this cemetery in order to continue on to the bridge. When they get onto the Interstate, it is immediately bombed by the military, trying to cover a retreat. This allows access to the Survivors into the graveyard and proceed onward to The Quarter. When passing through the cemetery, many of the mausoleums and tombs are broken into as well as empty, which might suggest that either the Infected ate the bodies or the sepulchers were looted. Near the entrance gate, it seems that some people were driving a truck to escape from the Infection, lost control of their vehicle and slammed into the wall of the cemetery.

Notes[]
- A wandering Witch or Tank may spawn somewhere within the cemetery.
- It is unknown if the tombs were looted or broken into by the Infected.
- However, the presence of the supplies that can be found among the tombs in the graveyard seemed to indicate that humans who would have been carrying those supplies were the perpetrators.
- The weapons and ammo can sometimes be found at the center of the graveyard near the monument.
- The layout of the graveyard changes with each playthrough, making it quite easy to get lost.
