Join Historic Columbia Foundation for their popular tours of one of Columbia's oldest cemeteries, Elmwood Cemetery. Join them before dark (7:30 pm) to study the iconography symbols found on so many of the markers and headstones in this historic cemetery during a “Secrets from the Grave” tour.  Or, take a moonlight tour at 8 or 8:30 pm. Costumed guides will lead you through the cemetery to discuss the lives, burials, cemetery plots, and tombstones of families and prominent citizens from Columbia's 19th and 20th centuries.
