The Quad Cities are bursting with history! Join us for a tour of local cultural and historical institutions and organizations to learn about the region's storied past.

We will visit the Davenport City Cemetery for this Q-C History Hop. It is located on Rockingham Road between Sturdevant Street and Division Street. The cemetery is maintained by the City's Parks and Recreation Department.

With the Parks and Recreation Department, Davenport City Cemetery Partnership strives to preserve and to share the history of the oldest cemetery in Scott County. Members of the Partnership will be providing a tour featuring the history of this distinguished cemetery and its notable local citizens and veterans from the U.S. Military and Schleswig-Holstein Kampfgenossen who are buried there.

Please wear weather-appropriate clothing and comfortable shoes. This is an outdoor event and is subject to change due to weather. Please visit our website or check our social media pages should inclement weather arise.

This is an off-site tour at 1625 Rockingham Rd, Davenport, Iowa. We will meet at the Davenport City Cemetery's Sexton's Cottage at 10:00 AM. Parking will be available at the end of the West drive.
