The Marion County Historical Society is holding a Voices of Graceland Cemetery Walk on September 13th.
This event is a way to learn about the history of Marion County by hearing the stories of the people who lived here. Costumed actors portraying these citizens will tell their stories as you visit their gravesites. Hear from a governor, flag designer, Civil War soldier, police officer, doctor, and a teacher. The event will be from 2:00pm – 4:00pm at Graceland Cemetery in Knoxville and the rain date is September 20th. A free will donation is welcomed.
The cemetery walk will begin at Auld Chapel located just inside the north gate of Graceland Cemetery and guided tour groups will depart in 15-minute intervals from 2:00pm until 3:45pm.
Parking is available within the cemetery at the south gate with overflow parking in the nearby soccer field lot on Willetts Drive.
