History Comes Alive at DC's Congressional Cemetery

There are so many fascinating stories to uncover!
Picture
When planning vacation itineraries, graveyard visits may not be top of mind. But they are really open-air museums full of art and history and stories and nature. And sometimes you’ll find really creative nods to various lives among the headstones, too.

Congressional Cemetery in Southeast DC is a historic -- and still active -- 35-acre graveyard spanning more than 300 years. And despite its name, it’s a pretty lively place. The cemetery hosts several 5Ks, concerts, and outdoor movie nights, as well as a book club and yoga classes, and plenty of dogs and their owners frequent the grounds, too.

But despite its size and longtime history, Congressional Cemetery is a real hidden gem that many locals and tourists don't even know exists.
