English: The Congressional Cemetery, officially Washington Parish Burial Ground, is in Washington, DC.
The cemetery was founded in 1807, and by 1817, sites were set aside for government legislators and officials. The grave markers for legislators were designed by Benjamin Latrobe. They consist of a large square block with recessed panels set on a wider plinth and surmounted by a conical point. To date, there are one Vice President, one Supreme Court justice, six Cabinet members, 19 Senators and 71 Representatives buried in the cemetery. Rows of legislators' and government officials' graves. |
