History Goes Bump: Ghost Tours For The Mind

Stones and Bones Ep. 9 - Laurel Hill Cemetery


Listen Later

Laurel Hill Cemetery in Philadelphia became a part of the rural cemetery movement shortly after it started, becoming the third garden cemetery in America to be founded. This was not long after Mount Hope Cemetery in Maine was dedicated and revealed that the movement was spreading along the East Coast. The cemetery was much needed as the growing city had already filled up most of its churchyards. Laurel Hill would become an example for future cemeteries and today is still beloved by the residents of Philly who flock to it to enjoy the beautiful headstones, monuments and mausoleums. Laurel Hill has an important place in the history of cemeteries in America.
