The Orthodox cemetery is known to have existed in 1738, but lacked official recognition until 1758.
The cemetery has two churches.
The cemetery became a traditional burial place for the professors of the Imperial Academy of Arts (founded in 1757) and of St. Petersburg University (founded in 1724) - both sited on Vasilievsky Island. Up to 800,000 people are estimated to have been interred at the Smolensky Cemetery before the Russian Revolution of 1917, making it the largest 19th-century cemetery of Saint Petersburg.
