Greenmount Cemetary


Greenmount Cemetary is an amazing place.

Although not in the best or safest parts of Baltimore City, it is an oasis unto itself. Once you pass through the imposing castle like gates, you are in another world.

The grounds are impecable, and the opportunities for photos are only limited to your imagination. Several famous and infamous people are buried here. Johns Hopkins, Enoch Pratt, and Napolean' sister in law, and even John Wilkes Booth.

I got there a little late in the day, and they close the gates at 4PM sharp. I almost got locked in for the night. Which would not have been too bad considering that it is safer in here at night, than the surrounding neighborhood. If you have a chance to visit, do so. You won't regret it.
