If you're traveling to Cleveland for a visit put Lake View Cemetery on your itinerary. It may sound strange, but it really is something to see. Wade Chapel, built in 1901, was designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The doors, floor tiles, benches, wall mosaics, chandeliers, lamps, ceiling and a large stained-glass window through which the sun shines at the right... more

I've never been to such a gothic looking cemetery before and never to a cemetery this big. The monuments and graves are spectacular in appearance and the landscape is beautiful, especially during Autumn. And don't miss the James Garfield monument and make sure you go when you can actually go inside. Definitely one of the most unique things about Cleveland. more

This is a very worthwhile place to check out. First off, I didn't realize so many famous folks were from Cleveland (silly me). The self guided tour for $5 that you can pick up at the Garfield Memorial is a must in order to get the highlights. However, you could just check it out on your own because the scenery... more

We took the Healthline bus from downtown to view the Wade Chapel. No one is interred in the chapel; in fact, it is used for weddings. The chapel is one of the most memorable things I have ever seen. The Tiffany stained-glass window is unbeliveably beautiful--the colors . . . ah! How did the craftsmen ever manufacture such a work... more

My husband and I took a walking tour of the cemetery focused on the architectural features. My husband thought it would be "seriously creepy," but ended up really enjoying the variety of tombs, the President's tomb, the Wade Chapel and finding all the historical people there. We'd want to go back for the Angel's Tour. more

You may be thinking, "Uh, cemetery? Why would I want to visit that place?" I can tell you, if you write this off without going, you will miss some of the most beautiful stone work I have seen. If you go, stop first at the Wade Chapel. It's located in the northeast corner of the cemetery (follow the signs once... more

Kinda weird to visit a cemetery, but it is so pretty. THe neighborhood it is in isn't the best but the cemetery grounds are breathtaking. The have fields of flowers in the spring. Many famous people are buried there. Like Eliot Nest, J. D. Rockerfeller, Garret Morgan and pres. Garfield. Garfield has a huge building like a small castle with... more
