Free public walking tours of Elmwood Cemetery are held every month from March to October. In June, we'll talk about maritime history at Elmwood — from shipbuilders and steamboat captains to the industrialists who shaped Detroit's riverfront and the people for whom the water was a road to freedom. Sunday, June 23 at 10 a.m. Learn more and register here.

Or perhaps, you would like to enjoy Elmwood on your own or with a group of friends. Each year, we are visited by those who choose to picnic alongside our restored pond, run or bicycle on our roads, watch for the migration of birds in Michigan, photograph our unique memorials, walk along our beautiful grounds appreciating our outdoor sculpture garden, the perennials, and majestic trees, or simply contemplate this quiet setting in the heart of Detroit.
