Alabama is full of old cemeteries, and while they are places to pay respect for the departed, they are also repositories of the beauty and history that capture the story of the state’s rich and diverse culture. Historic Resting Places of Alabama features cemeteries and graveyards throughout the state. Each Alabama county is represented with at least one cemetery that has something unique to teach its visitors. Historic Resting Places of Alabama explores different funerary symbols, unusual architecture, fascinating history, and moving stories about the final resting places of Alabama’s denizens.
