Since 1863, Ferncliff Cemetery & Arboretum has been a place of remembrance for the men and women who served our nation. Across our historic veterans sections, monuments and memorials stand in quiet tribute to their courage, sacrifice, and enduring legacy.

You might not think “cemetery” and “fun day out” belong in the same sentence. But hear me out: cemeteries like Ferncliff are far more peaceful and inspiring than eerie. In fact, visiting can be a powerful way to connect with history, nature, and memory, minus the “boo” factor.

Home to Ohio Champion Trees, century-old oaks and maples, and flowering beauties that bloom from February to fall, The Arboretum at Ferncliff Cemetery is a living showcase of biodiversity and history.
