About The Lexington Cemetery
The Lexington Cemetery is a beautiful and expansive resting place located right off Main Street in Lexington. Visitors admire the many old and gorgeous tombstones, stunning monuments, and beautiful scenery, including lovely ducks and geese. A highlight is Henry Clay's monument, which is massive and accompanied by a remarkable 230-year-old tree. The cemetery is known for its cherry blossoms, which attract many during blooming season. Guests recommend stopping by the office for maps and pamphlets to explore the vast grounds, which include mausoleums, grave stones, and underground tombs. Although some may find themselves lost among the paths, the serene atmosphere and picturesque views make it well worth a visit. Whether taking pictures or enjoying a peaceful walk, The Lexington Cemetery offers a unique experience for all.

Love this cemetery. Many old and gorgeous tombstones. Beautiful scenery, lovely ducks/geese. Henry Clay's monument is stunning and perhaps my favorite one that I discovered showed Jesus raising up a man from his grave. Spectacular! Well worth a day's visit.
