Our nation's 17th president, Andrew Johnson, was buried on top of Signal Hill in 1875. Known today as Monument Hill, the national cemetery has become a resting place for America's veterans

The land that comprises the Andrew Johnson National Cemetery was bought by Andrew Johnson in 1852. According to family tradition, Andrew Johnson enjoyed coming to this spot for peace and meditation. It is high land which has a beautiful view of the suburbs and the mountain range. During the civil war, it was used for "signaling" and was known during that time as "Signal Hill".

This tall obelisk marks the graves of President Andrew Johnson and his wife, Eliza, which was erected in 1878. Since the hill has been called "Monument Hill".
