About this Event


Hop aboard the trolley for a guided tour of Lakewood’s 250 acres of park-like beauty and storied history. We’ll take in vistas of the landscape and architecture, dive into the stories of some of Lakewood’s notable residents, and appreciate the artistry of monuments and sculptures.


Seats are limited. If you need to cancel your reservation, please email [email protected] so others may enjoy this experience.





Where to meet

Trolley passengers meet outside Lakewood’s historic Memorial Chapel. Directional signs will be posted. For GPS directions, this link opens in Google Maps.





Parking & transportation

Free parking is available along all roads inside the cemetery unless otherwise noted with a no parking sign. Metro Transit lines 6 and 23 stop near Lakewood’s front gates at 36th & Hennepin Avenue, about 1 block’s distance from the chapel. If you arrive by bicycle, lock your bike at the rack near the front gates and walk to the chapel. Please do not lock bikes to trees.





Accessibility information

  • The trolleys are wheelchair accessible. Please email [email protected] to let us know if you need wheelchair access for your trolley tour, so we can make arrangements.
  • Tour guides wear voice amplifiers.
  • Please note that due to the historic nature of the chapel building, its restrooms are single-occupancy washrooms that do not accommodate wheelchairs or walkers. We apologize for the inconvenience.




Restrooms

Before and after the trolley ride, single-stall restrooms are available inside the chapel.

If your plans change and you cannot make it, please let us know by emailing [email protected] or calling 612-540-5165. Seats are limited and we greatly appreciate your courtesy to release unused seats so others may enjoy the experience.
