St. Louis’ Bellefontaine Cemetery Blends History and Natural Beauty

Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum isn’t just a place of rest, it’s a place of life, history, and breathtaking beauty. Spanning 314 acres with more than 9,000 trees, shrubs, and flowers, the cemetery is one of only 50 level-three accredited arboretums in the world. Sydney Jones of Missouri Life Magazine takes us through the winding trails, streams, and centuries-old trees, and tells the stories that Bellefontaine holds to some of Missouri’s most legendary figures, making it both a natural sanctuary and a living museum of St. Louis history.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
