Overview

Dive into this captivating journey through the hallowed grounds of Chicago’s Graceland Cemetery. As we stroll amidst the stunning and serene beauty of historic resting places, you'll encounter the final resting spots of architectural visionaries like William LeBaron Jenney, John Root, Louis Sullivan, Mies Van der Rohe, and Daniel Burnham.
This unique walking tour not only unveils the grandeur of tombs and mausoleums but also shares the stories of Chicago's celebrated architects, whose creativity shaped the city's skyline.

But our journey extends beyond the architects' realm, as we also discover the final resting places of other notable figures with deep pockets—pioneers of industry such as Marshall Field, Palmer Potter, George Pullman, Walter Newberry, and more. Their legacies, intertwined with the fabric of Chicago's history, add an extra layer of richness to this immersive tour.
