Beautiful large cemetery. We consider cemeteries like parks but with more sculptures and fewer screaming kids. Beautiful, beautifully kept, huge, pleasant place with some historical features.

If you are not a cemetery visitor you may be surprised. In the spring, this cemetery is alive with floral display. Wonderful flowering trees, ducks and geese; numerous ponds, and calming meadows. Just the history and dates on the monuments alone justify a visit to the arboretum.

733 acres of pure beauty and history. I have taken my kids there over the years for all sorts of reasons. The kids had to do reports on all sorts of plants and trees and this was the place to look for them. Back in 1845 the Cincinnati Horticulture created Spring Grove and it has grown from there.

If you love to take nature photos, this is an AWESOME place to go. This cemetary is BEAUTIFUL.

I got some really good pics this year of their tulips by the lake with the fountain.

Simply beautiful place to walk for as long as you want, through lovely hills, ponds, historic structures and of course the historical markers. Just find an easy way to remember where you left your car! This place is huge. Just love it.

This cemetery contains over a thousand non-native species laid out along lakes and fountains in hill setting. Some civil war notables are buried here, including Fighting Joe Hooker and Salmon P. Chase, Lincoln's Secretary of the Treasury and later Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Competition among Cincinnati families have left some amazing monuments. If you are looking for specific...

Living in Cinti my whole life I've heard of Spring Grove Cemetery but never went until last year. I thought it odd to visit a cemetery without any relatives there. However, this was an absolute beautiful place. We were able to take some beautiful photos and I even saw a family taking some first communion photos with their daughter. Beautiful... More
