The Graveyard is a building used by the Scourge in Warcraft III.

Servants of the Undead tirelessly study the arcane arts in an effort to imbue weapons and armor with unholy power. The graveyard, like the necropolis, is able to process lumber for weapon and armor construction. This building also pulls fresh corpses from deep within the earth, exhuming them for use by the vile necromancers.

The Graveyard possesses five gravestones which are initially empty but will generate a Ghoul corpse every few seconds until all gravestones are occupied. The corpses will not decay while the Graveyard is intact; when the Graveyard is destroyed, the corpses will decay as normal.
