Sacramento Historic City Cemetery

There's much more to see at Sacramento's Historic City Cemetery than you might first think. Established in 1849, the cemetery is the last resting place for more than 20,000 early Sacramentan's. A true outdoor museum, the cemetery is adorned with ornate statues, dramatic markers, and beautiful landscape, providing a great record of California's history from the Gold Rush Era through today. Keep an eye out for the popular "Lantern Tours" held in October.
