thumbnailimage.aspx.jpg

Chicago’s past comes alive in monuments designed by noted sculptors and architects including Daniel Chester French, Lorado Taft, and Louis Sullivan. Many famous figures from Chicago’s social, political, and architectural history are buried in this park-like cemetery. Many notables involved in planning the Columbian Exposition ( featured in the book “Devil in the White City”) rest here.
