Greenwood Cemetery, one of Clarksville’s oldest active burial grounds, is the perfect setting for a captivating walk through the city’s rich and sometimes spine-tingling history. During this one-hour guided tour, participants will explore the winding paths of the cemetery, learning about the notable figures who shaped Clarksville and the intriguing stories surrounding them.
Tickets for the tours are $20.00, with a discounted price of $15.00 for museum members. Due to the tour’s popularity and limited space, advance purchase is required.
For those interested in delving even deeper into the past, the museum’s Curator of Collections will host a 30-minute “Artifact Talk” following the tour. The optional session, open to ages five and up, will showcase select items from the museum’s collection and costs an additional $5.00. This add-on can be reserved when purchasing tickets.
