Nice place to visit and view some burial plots from the 1800’s. Historical markers around the cemetery tell of notable people and events that took place. Confederate soldiers were buried there and there it is one of the largest slave burial plots mixed in with non slaves.

A walk through the cemetery is a lesson in Civil War history and the impact it had on families and communities. The cemetery is organized by state, with burials from all Confederate states. Efforts to protect and maintain the cemetery also are commemorated with statues and inscriptions on the many benches. The neighboring City Cemetery includes a plot where slaves are buried. A scenic overlook from neighboring Brown Park offers a great view of Kennesaw Mountain. The new location of the Gone with the Wind Museum is an easy walk across the street, allowing an extended visit of movie and real history. A walking and bike trail connects the cemetery to downtown Marietta, a short 1-mile walk that's NOT recommended in the heat and humidity of the Georgia summer.

Amazing and historic cultural venue hidden away in the center of Marietta. They walked where we walk and fought in this deeply divided country, both sides leaving wounds that may never heal. So many lessons about our American heritage, culture, values and identity with the promise of compassion, understanding and love between all our sisters and brothers.

A place that will take you back through time to learn more about our history...that was a trumbling times full of tears scars sorrow blood and glory...Gral. George Pickett failed to take the bridge at Gettysburg....his Division of 15,000 men was gone in less than 2 hrs...as they got exposed at short range artillery & shrapnel from the Union sildiers when they first came out of the bushes while charging against the Union lines....the war was fought for the independence of the Confederate States of America...a country that wasn't meant to be...There's no country without history as there's no achievement with no sacrifice...but we have to remember that all gave some and some gave all....Never ever let anybody erase manipulate or destroy your history.
