This century and a half old private nonsectarian cemetery is located outside the city limits. The beautifully landscaped grounds, which grew out of the 19th century "garden-as-cemetery" movement, feature 14 miles of winding paths and man-made lakes. Many of the tombs and mausoleums are of artistic and architectural importance. The gravesites of beer brewer Adolphus Busch, explorer William Clark, Senator Thomas Hart Benton, and poet Sara Teasdale can be found here. To obtain information and maps, visit the office first. |
