Paris Cemetery
Paris Cemetery is located along South Main Street (US 68 Bus.) in Paris, Kentucky, United States. Incorporated on January 30, 1847, the cemetery is owned and operated by the Paris Cemetery Company. When it first opened, many families re-interred their dead in the new cemetery. The cemetery is the burial place of many prominent Kentuckians, and includes the Bourbon County Confederate Monument and the Paris Cemetery Gatehouse, both of which are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The Paris Cemetery gatehouse, made of granite, was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 24, 1978. Although the cemetery was founded in 1847, the gatehouse wasn't added until 1862, and was designed by architect John McMurtry. There are also monuments on the grounds honoring those from Bourbon County who fought in: the Mexican - American War; World War I; along with a combined World War II, Korean War, and the Vietnam War Memorial.
