The historic Decatur Cemetery is Decatur’s largest downtown greenspace. Just .5 miles from the Square, the 58 acres are a beautiful and peaceful place to walk with a peek into the city’s past. The cemetery is accessible to the public seven days a week until dark. Dogs are welcome but must stay on leash and on the paved roads.
