Founded in 1841, Woodland Cemetery is one of the nation's five oldest rural garden cemeteries and a unique cultural, botanical and educational resource in the heart of Dayton, Ohio. The Romanesque gateway, chapel, and office, completed in 1889 are on the National Register of Historic Places with the chapel featuring one of the finest original Tiffany windows in the country. The Woodland Mausoleum adds a modern touch to this historic site while featuring 12 beautiful stained glass windows depicting woodland themes from literature and a magnificent rendition of "The Messiah." Thousands tour the grounds each year to visit the gravesites of Wilbur and Orville Wright, poet Paul Laurence Dunbar, Matilda and Levi Stanley, Queen and King of the Gypsies; Governor James Cox, writer Erma Bombeck, Jeraldyne Blunden, founder of the Dayton Contemporary Dance Company; inventor Charles F. Kettering and entrepreneurs John H. Patterson (NCR), George P. Huffman (Huffy Bicycles), & George Mead (Mead Paper). Woodland offers tours free of charge: most of Dayton's aviation heroes, inventors and business barons are buried here. As a result, Woodland is an important part of both the ''Aviation Trail'' and the ''National Aviation Heritage Area." Additionally, Woodland's 105 acres of Victorian monuments and award winning ''curvilinear'' hills and valleys are listed as a Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places, US Department of Interior.
