Greenhill Cemetery

Historic Frankfort cemetery with African American Civil War memorials and local history

Greenhill Cemetery is a historic Frankfort burial ground best known for its memorials connected to African American soldiers and local Civil War history. It is quieter than the better-known Frankfort Cemetery, but it adds an important perspective to the Kentucky capital's past.

Visit respectfully and treat it as a short history stop rather than a scenic wander. It pairs well with the State Capitol and other civic sights if you are trying to understand Frankfort beyond politics and river views.
