Time: First Tour – 1 p.m. Second Tour – 3 p.m.
Topic: History and Heritage of Spring Grove Cemetery
Several times in the past, HCGS scheduled Tram Tours at Spring Grove Cemetery, and they were very popular. We have scheduled two tours for Sunday, 15 September. They are limited to twenty-four participants each. The topic is History and Heritage of Spring Grove Cemetery with some architectural information about the mausoleums. It is a beautiful tour where you will learn about many notable families of Cincinnati. Spring Grove’s magnificent funerary art takes on a different light on this tour. You will see some of the interesting monuments that make Spring Grove a National Historic Landmark. You will also hear about the meaning of some of the carved symbols.
A few weeks in advance, members will receive an email about this program. Reservations will be required and limited to the first forty-eight responses. Individuals will be confirmed to tours on a first come, first assigned basis. Once the 1 p.m. tour is filled, registrants will be automatically assigned to the second tour. A confirmation email will be sent that provides details and the time of the assigned tour.
Please note that you can always sign up for a Public Tram Tour. They are listed on the Spring Grove Cemetery website.
