Join us for free one-hour tours of the African American Burial Ground, Andrew Pickens Calhoun Family Plot, and Woodland Cemetery at Clemson University. We offer cemetery tours on request to classes, school groups, local organizations, and campus and community groups. For those who cannot take the tour in-person, we also offer a Virtual Tour created by Clemson students.
