  • They will be removed when they are faded or unsightly.
  • NO GLASS or METAL of any kind is allowed.
  • Fort Snelling National Cemetery does not sell or provide flowers, wreaths or other gravesite adornments and our staff cannot recommend a private florist.

  • Christmas wreaths or grave blankets may be placed on graves from November 1 through January 20.
