The towering angel monuments that mark many of Spring Grove’s graves are among
the cemetery’s most popular and mysterious,
containing intricate histories and an intriguing ghost story or two. Get up close and personal with these statues during Spring Grove’s April Twilight Tour, which focuses on the angels and the many forms in which they come. In addition to the traditional winged appearance, the cemetery’s angels
also manifest as a faithful dog, lambs, women, a sphinx
and even a pyramid.
