Reviews of James A. Garfield Monument
"Located in Lakeview cemetery and now reopened after restoration. It is an amazing architectural wonder in the CLE! Docents are on hand to share their knowledge of its history - very informative. You can take the steps to the top and see the city and lake also. A real gem in our city! A must visit off you are on the east side or at the cemetery. Wade Chapel is also in the cemetery and another must see!"
"Respect to the legend himself Garfield. Back in the day, Garfield and I would roam the streets of Cleveland. We kept that place safe, safe from all crime. However, as the days went on, without my glorious king, the streets became a barren wasteland. Nowadays, I spend my time grieving my glorious leader, spending countless weeks at a time watching this beautiful work of art. Surrounded by some of the most famous people from Cleveland, in a secluded lot. This is 100% an awesome attraction."
"Gorgeous monument, fabulous view from the upper balcony, definitely worth a visit!"
"I can't even begin to describe how reverent this place is and feels. I'm shocked Garfield's body (along with his wife's, daughter's, and son-in-law's remains) are so accessible to the public. It's a gorgeous structure, every detail was paid attention to. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and provided excellent tidbits about Garfield's life, career, person. Absolutely beautiful, breath-taking, and moving. If you didn't know about Garfield before, he'll definitely be unforgettable after visiting here."
"We had a very nice experience at the monument. They do ask you to wear a mask if you're not vaccinated. The tour guy was very nice, although it was a bit hard to understand with the echoes inside and not being able to read his lips. They let you go inside the basement area where there are spiral stairs. When we got out he answered any further questions we had."
