About the National Cemetery
The National Cemetery is the final resting place for Andrew Johnson and his family, as well as for the nation's veterans. The high hill containing over 2000 graves provides a stunning view of the mountains. Special events at the cemetery include Memorial Day recognition, Wreaths Across America, and the presidential birthday wreath-laying. Feel free to walk the hilly sidewalks and stairs through the cemetery. The main gates are open daily. Pets are allowed on sidewalks on a leash.
