Lynchburg’s favorite fall event is back for it’s 17th Season! Join us for this year’s Candlelight Tours and follow your Spirit Guide on a journey through time as you encounter real-life cemetery residents from beyond the grave!

This year’s line-up of cemetery personalities will leave you mesmerized as they move you to laughter and tears. Then, please stop into our History Room to see photos and research, and enjoy cookies and cider.
** Walk times vary and run about 1.5 for each tour. Pick a time that works for you **
