About Marietta Confederate Cemetery
The Marietta Confederate Cemetery is a large Confederate burial ground in Marietta, Georgia, located beside the bigger Marietta City Cemetery. The Marietta Confederate Cemetery Foundation and the Friends of Brown Park, Inc. work together on improvements to the site. Their Garden of Heroes Capital Campaign aims to keep honoring the soldiers buried there. The official website describes the cemetery's history, upcoming events, and ongoing restoration work. Visitors should check the website before going, because the site has posted a temporary closure for maintenance.
