Mill Springs National Cemetery, Military cemetery in Nancy, Kentucky, United States.
Mill Springs National Cemetery spans across 6.3 acres of land on a high sloping knob, featuring uniform rows of white marble headstones and a limestone perimeter wall.
The cemetery originated from the Battle of Mill Springs in 1862, where Union forces secured their first major victory in the Western theater of the Civil War.
The cemetery serves as a memorial ground for veterans, including Medal of Honor recipient Sergeant Brent Woods who fought in the Indian Wars.
The cemetery grounds remain open daily from sunrise to sunset, with administrative offices operating weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM except on federal holidays.
Initially designated as Logan's Cross Roads Cemetery, the site transformed from battlefield trenches into one of the first National Cemeteries established in the United States.
