Private Property and they have the right to ask anyone to leave.

Most churches encourage anyone to visit regardless of any belief to encourage people to think:

God loves you just as you are, and if you don't feel close to GOD,
who moved?

Most churches would, I think, be considered public buildings. I've certainly never seen anybody turned away from attending services anywhere, unless the person was disruptive in some way.

Cemeteries are a little different. There are public cemeteries and private ones, and the private ones are not uncommonly found on church property. Most cemeteries have some sort of rules concerning the times one can visit them, but there are others that are so old that one might think them abandoned (I know of a couple here in the city where I live) that don't seem to have any regulations at all.

My advice would be to try and find out, and when you go, please show an attitude of respect. It is, after all, home to human remains.

Most cemetaries consist of lots of privately owed spaces. Churches usually are owned by the congregation and are usually open to the general public. CHurches are sometimes considered "mediating instututions" the span the gap between public and private life.

Churches are private property. Most belong to the congregation. Most cemetaries are public (owned by a city, township, or other government body), but some are private, often owned by a church, corporation, or even an individual.
