Crown Hill National Cemetery, Military cemetery in Indianapolis, United States
Crown Hill National Cemetery spans 1.4 acres within the larger Crown Hill Cemetery, providing dedicated space for military interments at its Sections 9 and 10.
The cemetery began operations in 1866 when the federal government purchased land to inter Union soldiers who died at military camps near Indianapolis.
The Women's Relief Corps No. 44 erected a monument in 1889 to commemorate unknown Union soldiers who lost their lives during the Civil War.
The cemetery maintains specific regulations about floral decorations, allowing fresh-cut flowers throughout the year while limiting artificial arrangements to certain dates.
The cemetery grounds contain burial sites of both Union soldiers and Confederate prisoners from Camp Morton, representing a complex period in American military history.
