Created in 1857, Woodland Cemetery boasts magnificent views of the Mississippi River, mature trees and landscaping, and ornate grave markers and mausoleums. The cemetery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and contains the graves of many early Quincy and Illinois civic and business leaders.
Woodland Cemetery is a historic cemetery located at 1020 South Fifth Street in Quincy, Illinois. Planned by politician John Wood and opened in 1846, the cemetery is a product of America's rural cemetery movement of the mid-nineteenth century. The cemetery's grave markers include smaller Victorian monuments and large Gothic Revival and Neoclassical structures. The cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
