Elmwood Cemetery, established in 1846, is the oldest still-operating non-religious cemetery in Detroit. It is one of the few places in the city where you can see the naturally hilly topography of Detroit before urbanization.
It is also the only place in Detroit to see Bloody Run, the historic creekway that got its name after a battle between British soldiers and an alliance of Native American forces during Chief Pontiac's siege of Fort Detroit in 1763. Elmwood, which is also a certified Arboretum, sits on 86 acres on the near east side of Detroit, two miles from downtown. Our park-like grounds welcome families, walkers, joggers, cyclists, bird watchers, tree lovers, picnickers and history lovers 7 days a week, 365 days a year, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. May-September, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. October-April. Self-guided and expert-led tours are available; more information on our website.
