Construction Project at Netherlands American Cemetery Underway

Published August 4, 2016

New ramps are being installed at Netherlands American Cemetery to better serve those visitors with mobility impairments.  The work, which began in July 2016, is expected to be complete in early  2017. All parts of the cemetery, including the chapel, remain open during construction. However, visitors can expect elevated noise levels and some obstructed sight lines at the cemetery while the project is ongoing. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure our cemeteries remain fully accessible to all visitors.
