  Love this cemetery, great history and grounds. I have two generations of Bohemian ancestors buried there. The office staff is most helpful. The revival of the July picnic is very important to our history and it is also fun. They serve delicious food for a very good price and parking is free. The Eastland Memorial section is well done and worth the visit for Chicago history buffs. My grandmother shared how the picnics were so important and this was in the 1920s and 1930s. It is a family honoring environment. Cubs fans-you really should check the Cubs fan burial section out.

  Older cemetery, seems a bit neglected at times. Some really interesting and unusual graves.

  Beautiful Cemetery. Family is there. The experience of trying to get a headstone has been intense AND painful. The two women behind the counter are ALWAYS INTENSE AND TREAT YOU LIKE THEY DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOU. Had to make three appointments to even TALK about how to get a gravestone. It just really makes you uncomfortable, like you're inconveniencing them
  
  I don't want anyone to lose their job, but a little "customer service" goes a long way. I don't think they even realize how they make people feel. Dealing with burying a loved one is hard enough, why should I have to put up with being treated this way??
  
  They are not selling car parts, THEY ARE SELLING GRAVESTONES! BE NICE AND TAKE TIME FOR YOUR GRIEVING "CUSTOMERS"!

  The grounds are a mess, roads within the cemetery are filled with holes and I've been promised several times that they would have my Grandmothers headstone engraved and they still have not done it. She will be gone a year in June. All I get is excuses. They women in the office are rude and useless. I have never had to deal with such poor service and lack of concern for your family member. As, a national cemetery you'd think it would be beautiful and historic.

  First of all, it is NOT a Polish cemetery! It is one of Czech and Slovak (mainly Lutheran) heritage! It started when a Czech woman was not allowed to be buried in a Catholic cemetery because she did not have confession before she dies in the late 1900's. . It is a national landmark and has some of the most beautiful grave markers done by well known Czech sculptures. I am glad that my relative are there and they have been always great to work with when I have had the chance.
