Reviews
This museum and cemetery was breathtaking. I went in the fall, so the leaves on the ground just add to the scenery. The workers in the gift shop are very knowledgeable and friendly, and the prerecorded audio for the pest house is very interesting. I definitely recommend this if you're a history lover!
The old city Cemetery is a walk through history. There are several small museums with outdoor speakers that tell the stories of the artifacts within. The pest house reminds us that we have often quarantined in the past, for this instance, the pestilence was small pox. Beautiful walk with stately trees.
Thank you ! Feeling much better now! Seriously, the Pest House Museum is very interesting, and the cemetery's museum and restored railroad station are also worth a stop. Very nice.
Sooo much history at this place. It's quiet, a bit of walking from site to the next, but a beautiful scenic walk. Can't wait to go back when all the flowers have bloomed.
Young lady was friendly and helpful.
