Beaufort National Cemetery, Military cemetery in Beaufort, United States.
The 44-acre cemetery features sections arranged in a half-circle pattern with roads laid out like wheel spokes across the grounds at Boundary Street.
The cemetery began during the Civil War in 1863, receiving Union soldiers from nearby hospitals and battlefields, including 1,700 African-American soldiers.
Medal of Honor recipients rest among the 28,725 interments, representing military service members from every major American conflict since the Civil War.
The cemetery welcomes visitors daily from 8:00 AM until sunset, with the administrative office operating on weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
In 1989, nineteen soldiers from the Massachusetts 55th Infantry, discovered on Folly Island, received full military honors during their reinterment ceremony.
