Beautiful cemetery. Lots of fun notables. Glad they had number information for them. We have been to many cemeteries and never found the grave we were looking for.

Simply beautiful!
I was absolutely amazed at the magnitude, design and location of James Whitcomb Riley’s memorial. This adoration of this man went far by so many. Not only did we all love his work, but local children personally had a special connection with him. It tugs so much at my heartstrings to know that they donated coins for his memorial. Happy to add some more to make their way to The Riley Hospital for Children. I am so happy that we came across this cemetery and we’re able to lay our respects.

In our travels, my wife and I always like to visit famous cemeteries from Arlington National Cemetery in Washington DC to Graceland in Chicago to Hollywood in Richmond, Virginia. There are many others that aren't as celebrated or as well known but should be. Like Crown Hill in Indianapolis. Located at 700 38th Street, about three miles northwest of the downtown area, this historic rural cemetery and cultural landmark was established in 1863 and covers 555 acres. Open from 8:30 to 5 Monday through Saturday and 8 to 8 on Sunday, it is the third largest non-governmental cemetery in the United States, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and features 25 miles of paved road with 150 species of trees and plants. The property has over 225,000 graves with 1,500 burials a year. Among the most noteworthy burials are Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd president of the United States, infamous bank robber John Dillinger, poet James Whitcomb Riley, three U.S. vice-presidents, several governors of Indiana, majors of Indianapolis, U.S. Senators, members of the U.S. House of Representatives, Civil War generals, four Indianapolis 500 winners and 1,616 Confederate soldiers who died in a prison camp in Indianapolis. Crown Hill is known for its architecture, too. The most significant structures on the grounds are the High Victorian Gothic-style chapel and vault built in 1875 that was renovated in 2001 for $3.2 million and received an Excellence in Architecture Award from the American Institute of Architects in 2007 and the Abbey Mausoleum, which was built in 1993 at a cost of $1.3 million and is constructed of Indiana limestone and Carnelian granite.

There are people buried here, with tombstones, so it IS a cemetery.
That said, this place is absolutely awash in history. Indiana's poet laureate James Whitcomb Riley is buried here, on the highest point in Marion County.
This cemetery is especially lovely in early spring, as things bloom, and in late October/early November as the leaves change.
One wishes there were picnic benches in the cemetery just to sit, perhaps have bite to eat, and enjoy the views!

This may be one of the largest cemeteries in the country.
The address of this review is not the REAL address of the cemetery. The main entrance is off of Boulevard Place and south of 38th street. There is a section of the cemetery on the south side of 38th street and on the north side of 38th street.
AND....in both sections there are sections dedicated to veterans. AND, typically on the 3rd Saturday of December we gather to lay wreaths on the grave stonse of those veterans.

TOM HOFMAN AND STAFF :
the management at crown hill does not like to have their authority challenged, i would not advise anyone to have their family buried at this cemetery
the three or for women that work there think and act as if they all there as a favor to you, they want to charge me an unrealistic amount to transfer my two burial plots into my name after my divorce.
they are dishonest and without feelings or concern, i have a serious health issue and im afraid i will be living much longer and i have no where to be buried after purchasing my plots at crown hill , the truth of the matter is, the two burial plots i purchased have increased 10 times in value and this is crown hill's attempt to take the plots back, the staff should be ashamed of themselves for the treatment of the people who own plots, they are cheats, liars and thieve's!
I PAID MY MONEY AND NOW HAVE NO WHERE TO BE BURIED!!!!!!!!!

Crown Hill Cemetery is absolutely beautiful. My husband and I love exploring the history of cemeteries. There is so much to explore here. You could literally spend all day at Crown Hill.

When I was home from college for a few days, my mom and I took a quick trip to Crown Hill. It was in the 70s and sunny, absolutely perfect weather. We had a great time exploring; the national cemetery, John Dillinger's grave, and James Whitcomb Riley's memorial were my favorites. Really, all the memorials on the hill were great. I got a kick out of listening to my mom struggle to place Indianapolis luminaries.
On Crown Hill's website, I found a list of notable people whose graves I wanted to see. Unless you're on a tour, I'd recommend wandering around instead because it was difficult to find many of the graves (it took us 15 minutes to find Dillinger, for example). Perhaps we're just bad at reading maps. But, we found some of the coolest graves by just wandering around, so it worked out. I'd also recommend bringing a picnic and plopping under a tree. I would definitely stick to the older section, as the section you access by driving under the 38th street underpass was not nearly as beautiful.
As a whole, the cemetery got us thinking about historical legacies and who deserves to be remembered. Definitely a worthwhile trip, and I'm considering returning in the future! Would be a great place to run.

What a beautiful cemetery. It goes on for what seems like days; it is that large. Aside from the notable celebrities buried there just looking at all of the unique markers and headstones is a neat experience.

The Daughters of the Union are meeting at the Waiting Station on Saturday. I have never been to your facility. Do I enter the grounds at 3400 Boulevard Place to get to the Waiting Station? In pictures it looks like the gates are kept closed.

Yes, enter the stone Gothic gate at 34th St. & Boulevard Place. (The address is 3400 Boulevard Place.) The Waiting Station is the brick building on the right. Where the bell tower is.
