Vandals have damaged 19 tombstones at Goodna's historic, 150-year old cemetery in Stuart Street Goodna, causing an estimated $100,000 damage overnight.
Police are investigating the incident.
One of the damaged graves dates back more than 110 years.
The Goodna Cemetery was established by the New South Wales government in 1859 before Queensland became a separate colony.
Local Councillor and Cemetery Trustee Paul Tully described the vandalism as "a senseless destruction of family graves".
"Whoever is responsible should face the full consequences of the law for this appalling desecration," Cr Tully said.
