Named the best tours in WNY!

One of the best ways to explore the cemetery, and appreciate the beauty of the grounds and monuments, is by taking one of our curated walking tours.

Forest Lawn offers guided walking tours on a wide range of subjects including general history, art and architecture, cemetery symbolism, and specific historic events and eras, such as the Pan American Exposition of 1901 and the Gilded Age. Tours last from 1-2 hours, depending on the topic, and are led by one of our highly knowledgeable volunteer docents.
