Preservation Durham is offering three special history tours of Old Maplewood Cemetery on October 19, 2024.
Maplewood Cemetery Tour
Saturday, October 19, 2024
9:30 to 4:30 p.m.
$15 in advance; $20 day of; free for Preservation Durham members
Historic Maplewood Cemetery is at 815 Kent Street, Durham.
Maplewood is Durham’s oldest public cemetery. Here are laid millionaires and paupers, saints and scallywags. On the tour we will tell stories of triumph, tragedy, fame, and misfortune – all in one of Durham’s loveliest spaces. On Saturday, Preservation Durham will operate three tours at the same time. Each tour is a continuous loop that covers a different part of the cemetery. Ticket-holders may come anytime between 9:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. and join a tour in progress. Shift from tour to tour or do all three! Each tour takes about an hour and fifteen minutes. Look for the Preservation Durham canopy at the Kent Street entrance near Morehead Avenue.
