Veterans Day Tour November 9, 2008

The Evergreens Cemetery has the advantage of being one of the most picturesque and historic places in all of New York City. It is the final resting place of veterans of the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, and the two World Wars. Several Medal of Honor recipients are interred at the Evergreens as well.

This free walking tour, led by the cemetery's resident historian, will provide an in-depth look at the cemetery's military history in honor of our veterans. The tour starts at 11 a.m. at the Bushwick Ave. gate, weather permitting. If the weather looks poor, please call the cemetery at 718-455-5300 to see if the tour has been canceled.
