One of the nicer cemeteries to visit in a city that has no shortage of them to go around. The green deer is a neat signature monument.

The cemeteries in New Orleans have a certain energy about them. Most of them are locked up and you have to pay for a tour but we found one that was unlocked and I’m not sure if I picked the correct name of the cemetery but walking around inside was absolutely incredible!!! The history that is in here and the beauty of the tombs. If you are in New Orleans you have to experience one.

A very peaceful place with history. It’s a great place to walk, learn, and pay respect to those who lay there.

Not sure about Greenwood. Best to check with them: https://www.greenwoodnola.com

How big is it?

Large enough to where it has street signs posted within the cemetery. The cemetery's website says 150 acres.

Why is the guys at the gate harassing people before 4:30pm. Online it clearly says you close at 4:30pm. If earlier hours will be observed, then post those hours. Many people come from out of town to pay respects and being told at 4pm you can't....

That's fine I can be out at 4:30pm but if they state they are open until 4:30pm then gates should be open.......by the way there are so many ways into this cemetery. It is not fenced in but good try there.
