It’s back! One of Green-Wood’s most popular events returns for one day only. We’re opening many of our most impressive and elaborate 19th-century mausoleums. Peek inside massive stone walls and elaborate iron gates as you step inside stunning examples of Green-Wood’s distinct architecture. At each stop, docents will offer a glimpse into the lives of the personalities who now rest in these opulent structures. Bring your sneakers and walk the route; a handy map is provided at the main entrance. |

Green-Wood boasts a spectacular collection of 19th-century architectural wonders by some of the most famed architects in American history. Designing works to immortalize their patrons, many –including James Renwick, Jacob Wrey Mould, and Gamaliel King, among others – have also established their own permanent residences here. Part historical investigation, part homage, this tour highlights the critical role architects have played in transforming the landscapes of not only Green-Wood, but New York City. |

There are few places more atmospheric than a cemetery at dusk - and Green-Wood is top notch when it comes to beauty and atmosphere. Arm yourself with a flashlight to explore the cemetery's stunning landscape as the sun fades over the horizon. You will visit the graves of fascinating figures in New York and American culture while your tour guide regales you with some mysterious tales. The night ends at our famous catacombs, which are normally closed to the public. |
