Designing Death
Many of us give a lot of thought to the design of our homes. New furniture? New paint? Complete reno? What about designing for our “permanent residences”? Join us for a tour of Green-Wood’s monuments and mausoleums that present distinct artistic styles, including Egyptian Revival, Neoclassical, Art Deco, and Art Nouveau. The tour will have special emphasis on design and historic preservation.

Twilight Tour
There are few places more atmospheric than a cemetery at dusk - and Green-Wood is top notch when it comes to beauty and atmosphere. As the sun sets on 478 spectacular acres, you'll weave through stunning landscapes and visit the graves of fascinating figures in New York and American history. This not-to-be-missed walking tour ends with a visit to the Catacombs, which are normally closed to the public.
