My mother was doing a garden club showing at this cemetery because they have so many different type of trees on the grounds. Normally I would have never thought to visit a cemetery for anything other than to see a relative's grave, but I wanted to support my mother and went anyways. I am glad I did. My girlfriend and I had a good time seeing all the old grave stones and large buildings that some people are burried in. Make sure to look along the side facing Harrisburg to see the stone buidlings. And while I don't really care too much about the different kind of plants and trees that are there, but if you do this is a great place to visit. We spent at least an hour there and only walked about 1/4 of the grounds.

We loved going through this cemetery. It's all that you could hope for in an old cemetery...tree roots, fallen over headstones, the utter stereotype of an old cemetery. Loved it!

Not well maintained, debris scattered everywhere. Older graves and stones neglected when they fall.

なかなか綺麗に整備された公園墓地です。墓石のスタイルも日本とはまったく違うので、興味深い物があります。また、公園状態に整備されているので、昼間は散策に訪れている人も案外多いのは文化の違いを感じました。

I really enjoyed my visit to the Harrisburg Cemetery. It was very peaceful and I enjoyed wondering around exploring. I was so excited when I found some hidden gems that I didn't read about. I totally felt safe driving to and in the cemetery. I am a single female historian and I travel to many, many cemeteries. I am always careful. There was no threat there. The cemetery began in 1845 so I hope to see some signs of wear as that makes the cemetery a little more magical and grand to someone like me. Of course I always lock my purse and valuables in the trunk of the car while I'm exploring at all the cemeteries I visit. There were people working in the cemetery, jogging, mother's pushing babies and I think I saw a couple dog walkers. It was a beautiful fall day. A women came up to me and asked if I needed help finding anybody which I thought was awesome. I had studied the cemetery for a couple weeks prior to my visit so I was familiar with the layout and who was buried there. It's definitely worth the visit if you are in the area. The grounds were very well kept. Can't wait until I'm in that area again to visit. Thank you to the ones working so hard to maintain this historic cemetery! Happy Holidays!

Quiet place to visit, big on beauty. Lovely marble headstones and landscaped gardens and pond.

People look for different things in a cemetery. We like a nice setting, but we also like sculpture like tomb markers and decorative mausoleums. We found this to be much more of a head stone only area. It is fenced in, so check hours. It closed at 4PM on weekdays.

Beautiful cemetary. Be sure to watch out for when they have guided tours to learn about the famouse and infamous residents buried there.

You can get the most out of a visit to the Harrisburg Cemetery by taking a tour guided by volunteers from one of the historical associations in town. They can point out where the famous people of state history are buried. Don't miss seeing the graves of Confederate soldiers who, after being wounded in the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863, were brought to Harrisburg for medical care but died. Union soldiers likewise are buried here; you can tell them apart from the Confederates by the fact that someone maintains small American flags on the graves of Northern soldiers, while no flags at all fly over the graves of the Southerners.
