Dating back to the 1860s, the Mulberry Street Cemetery has been a part of the cultural fabric of LaGrange. This slice of American Southern history serves as the solemn resting place for Civil War veterans, hundreds in unmarked graves and Horace King, the esteemed covered bridge builder. The $2.7 million Mulberry Street Cemetery restoration project is a major initiative aimed at revitalizing and preserving the cemetery and highlighting its historical significance while honoring those laid to rest here. This project will incorporate education elements, showcase regional and local history and create a public space for shared community engagement.
