Tour this beautiful cemetery by walking through it! So much history! Beautiful view of historical headstones and trees! Recommend driving through it!

Full of history. Beautiful and old cemetery which is full of history. Free to everyone. Right on the river. They offer tours or you can just drive there and spend the day among the old graves and old trees.
This was worth the trip. Anyone who appreciates history, sculpture, or nature should be sure to visit this site. We didn't take a tour; we just explored on our own, but we enjoyed the adventure.
This cemetery is peaceful and beautiful. So many of the headstones look like artists' statuary. There is so much history there.
