Description

The Grave of President John F. Kennedy was completed on July 20, 1967, shortly following his assassination. Located in the heart of Arlington National Cemetery, it is one of the world's most famous resting places, a 3.2-acre memorial with granite walls, elaborate stone paving, and fescue and clover plantings to evoke the natural look of a Massachusetts Field. The grave is also home of the Eternal Flame.
