Beautiful, picturesque cemetery that conjures up images of old world European cemeteries. Peaceful place to walk and reflect. A colorful gang of wild turkeys wanders around the grounds — it's a delight to find them. Many notable Minnesotans are buried here, such as Hubert H. Humphrey. Note that bicycles are not permitted on the paths.
I dont know how you can review a cemetery. No one wants to go there. But we feel at peace visiting our loved ones who have passed. The grounds are very well kept and the employees are incredibly kind during a difficult time. The directory on where to find your loved ones grave is also very helpful
One of the most beautiful cemeteries I have been to. Some famous people in history are interred here. There's a cute chapel. Looks different in the winter and fall, and hauntingly picturesque. Sometimes, you might come across a random bouquet of pheasants or peacocks. More
A really beautiful cemetery with a gorgeous, one-of-a-kind chapel. We tend to stop by a cemetery whenever we travel because they are usually quiet, pretty, and full of history. This one was our favorite. Nothing spooky about it—just beautiful hills, lakes, and monuments.
Can I rave about a cemetery? Well …..as much time as I’ve spent in this one just exploring and walking through it I think I can ! Respectful staff 1800s through present with a peaceful lake in the far corner ……if my body ended up here I’d be ok with that …..seriously.
Beautiful and huge. Practicing witchcraft,I spend a lot of time in cemeteries communing with the ancestors and this cemetery is exceptional. Gorgeous tombstones, monuments and mausoleums. I often see people jogging here. The residents seem like good people
Beautiful spacious grounds with many large old trees. Abundant wildlife including deer, turkeys, raptors, songbirds, waterfowl, squirrels, racoons, herons and more. Lots of unique grave markers, including somber old tombstones that go back
It's a beautiful area, convenient to reach, plenty of parking. They know why we're here, staff is friendly and knowledgeable. It was a beautiful chapel which I'm told one of our family members helped with the dome ceiling. I thank everyone
I want to say that this cemetery is beautiful and well kept. The chapel is absolutely stunning. The issue I have is with the way the reception following the service was handled. My dear mother spent many hours planning the service for our
I just moved back to Uptown Mpls, and needed someplace to walk a couple of miles without plowing thru the summer mobs around Bde Maka Ska. I have extended family buried here so I figured I could justify my presence if necessary. It turned
Beautiful place. Tried to go visit a loved one here and had been planning the trip to come. I drove all the here to find the building locked and to find out from someone else that the buildings close at 4:30. Very inconvenient for someone
Located in the Lakewood Cemetery in Minneapolis stands a beautiful replica of the Haglia Sophia. The replica shows the signature dome that the Hagia Sophia is famous for. The interior is wrapped in stunning art full with color. I noticed
Beautiful cemetery in Minneapolis. So much history to be found in this bucolic setting. The online map gives a historical guide that goes along with the region of the cemetery that you are driving through. This is an active cemetery and
Beautiful place, and the most peaceful walks are had there. I like to go in the early evening, walk around the outer trails (a good handful of miles), and visit my grandparents. Very well tended, a lot of interesting historic headstones.
Not one building had a sign, name, or number of what the buildings were. Numbers or names would be helpful on the buildings so you can tell the bereaved friends and Family! My cousins wife, who had never met anyone of the family, walked
Nestled in the lush rolling hills near the largest lake within the city limits of Minneapolis (Lake Bde Maka Ska), Lakewood cemetery offers beauty, peace, and quiet. It’s many mature trees are stunning in the fall. The famous Lakewood
If I could give Lakewood a rating equivalent to all the stars in the sky, I would. My mother was laid to rest here on June 1 after she lost her battle with Covid 19. She had a hard life so I’m glad that she’ll rest in these beautiful,
The Lakewood Mausoleum is a spectacle. It's precision and attention to detail to go along with the beautiful colors, marble, and lighting makes it something special to observe. What a wonderful, calming place to pay your respects.
This cemetery has a spectacular view and the ground keeping is spot on. I scout out a lot of locations for photography, and this place is one of my favorite spots in the city. Check out some of the photos I have taken there.
So beautifully maintained it seems more of a public park and the Lakewood Cemetery Chapel does not have it's like anywhere in Minneapolis (and according to the visitor's guide, anywhere outside of Italy for that matter).
It's my favorite place to spend time and clear my head, I have awful agoraphobia and anxiety so I explore the grounds with my van and take photos. Absolutely adore it and hope to lay my own head to rest there someday.
The place is beautiful but the hours are extremely inconvenient for someone who works 830-530 m-f and 8-12 on Saturdays. I wish there were better accommodations at for holidays and summer hours.
Beautiful scenery n the chapel was beautiful inside for a funeral today! Someday, I would love to walk around inside the cemetery to look at the beautiful statues n mausoleums n tombstones!
Beautiful cemetery in if anybody knows anybody that is looking for a plot I have one that I would like to sell so if anybody is looking for a plot this message be back and we'll get back
The Chapel is so beautiful and the grounds so excellently manicured. I love that they leave the Chapel open for folks to appreciate. One of my favorite places in the city.
This is one of the Twin Cities most beautiful spots. Take a drive though the cemetery, see the Lakewood Cemetery Garden Mausoleum building - Amazing from every angle.
Massive outdoor area. Walked for 2 hrs and barely covered 1/3. That's even without going in to look at everything. Grab a map from the main building by the gate.
Beautiful cemetary with a non-denomination chapel near Lake Mde Maka Ska. Great for walking and jogging. In the winter, we spotted Wil turkeys in large group.
A serene place to get away for awhile, or just explore the grounds, chapel and mausoleums. Also, if you want to jog in peace, this is a great place to do so.
I use to come all the time just for peace and quiet. My mother was recently buried there. So beautiful there and staff are amazing and helpful
I have ancestors who reside here. The grounds are stunning and it's a great place to find peace and tranquility when you need it most.
Beautiful place. I got married in the funeral chapel in August of 2015. It was such a unique place to share such a special day.
Grounds keepers went Above & Beyond helping take out in ground planters at Grandma & my brothers site..Kudos ! More
Well-kept grounds and stunning location with lots of places to explore and learn the history of Minnesota.
Amazing cemetery with powerful energy. Beautiful care and respect for each and every person laid to rest.
Nice peaceful place. They held a lantern ceremony for the recently deceased. A somber but pretty event.
The grounds of this place are just as incredible and impressive as the interior of the the chapel.
I miss you. I am sorry I haven't visited you since the burial... I will when I am ready. Love you.
A beautiful final resting place. Mike Rydberg was with us through everything. Thank you.
Well kept up cemetery with beautiful views. I'm glad my mom is buried there.
What a beautiful place! I love stopping in whenever I'm in the area.
Beautiful grounds. Beautiful buildings. The chapel is a must-see.
