Danville National Cemetery, Military cemetery in Danville, United States.
The Danville National Cemetery spans 0.3 acres within Bellevue Cemetery, featuring 18 cemetery lots arranged in a rectangular configuration with marble headstones.
The federal government established this cemetery during the Civil War in 1862, designating lots from the former Danville City Cemetery for military burials.
The cemetery contains five sections dedicated to soldiers and one section for civilians, reflecting the deep connection between military service and community remembrance.
The cemetery, located at 277 North First Street in Danville, Kentucky, remains open for subsequent interments of veterans and eligible family members in existing gravesites.
Each corner of the cemetery displays a limestone post marked with U.S., while a 70-foot flagpole installed in 1971 stands near the bronze identification plaque.
