The cemetery was established in 1869 and is the resting place for many of Raleigh’s founding citizens and unknown confederate soldiers. It is surrounded by Victorian era homes and is a popular stop on the historic Raleigh tour circuit. All the historic homes and sites are identified by markers, and maps are widely available.

There are plenty of restaurants. It is also easy to find street vendors, offering traditional hotdogs and other choices close to the museums and there are plenty of benches and resting spots as well.
