Directions to Cemetery

Early staging will be from 11:00 am -  11:45 am hosted by the Sykes Museum, 174 Church St. Dover, TN 37058.  Handicapped guests can park via the back entrance on Cedar Street.  All other participants should park on Church Street.  Fort Donelson National Cemetery is only .02 mile from the Sykes Museum.  After the Wreath Laying Ceremony is concluded, participants are welcomed to tour the Museum in all its Christmas splendor and get a warm beverage and snack.

Navigation systems do an adequate job finding the cemetery. When you arrive, please follow the people and signs to the site of the ceremony itself.



Parking Instructions

Due to the limited parking, we would like to park those who need assistance first.  There is plenty of parking adjacent to the cemetery on Cedar Street, next to the Sykes Museum.
