Come on our History Walking Tour presented by Junket! Did you know that this is one of the world's busiest and most popular cemeteries? Yes, it is also regarded as one of Savannah, Georgia's most eerie cemeteries. Many residents of Savannah believe that this 160-acre area has a special strength and energy that sets it apart from other parts of the city. The area here has long made the ideal location for funerals and visiting the deceased because it is discretely tucked into the Wilmington River. There are no monuments or statues that compare to those seen here. Numerous azalea trees may be seen here, and Spanish moss covers everything, including the tombs. Many famous Savannahians are interred here, and their monuments are not to be missed. Come discover the history and beauty of this peaceful plot of land.
Tour and learn the history behind some of the most well-known monuments in this beautiful and historic cemetery. You’ll hit such well-known sites as “Little Gracie”, Johnny Mercer, John Mungen, and the Jewish Section.
