Tours of Cedar Grove Cemetery

New Bern has an undiscovered gem—the Cedar Grove Cemetery. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it has a fine collection of 19th century gravestones, markers, and unique statuary monuments. 

The Earl of Craven chapter of Questers International offers tours of Cedar Grove Cemetery. The Questers chose the cemetery as a major focus because of its historical significance and because it is has many neglected tombstones,  fencing, and mausoleums in need of repair. They accept donations that are used for repairs in the cemetery. If you join a tour, you’ll hear funny and sad stories about the graves and enjoy the tranquility and beauty of this special place. Each tour lasts about an hour.

No reservations needed, just meet at the Weeping Arch.  Find us on the Earl of Craven chapter of Questers Facebook page or Instagram. Families are welcome.
