Mount Olivet Funeral Home & Cemetery stands as one of Nashville's most enduring institutions, with roots dating to 1856. The cemetery occupies 206 acres divided into 40 distinct gardens, serving as the final resting place for governors, senators, mayors, and Confederate soldiers from battles of Franklin, Murfreesboro, and Stones River. The funeral home itself sits on Lebanon Pike near Spence Lane, recently renovated with what the site describes as "Southern sophistication"—light-filled spaces, three shades of silver decor, and six-foot columns beneath a vaulted ceiling.
The funeral home's chapel seats 250 guests and features a large rear window overlooking crepe myrtles and the rolling cemetery hills. Natural light fills the space during daytime services. A state-of-the-art sound system accommodates Nashville's musical heritage, and an on-site florist handles casket sprays, standing wreaths, and sympathy bouquets. The property includes Lindsley Hall, named for suffragist Louise Grundy Lindsley, which serves as a flexible reception venue with round tables, buffet space, and capacity for catered events with live music.
Mount Olivet distinguishes itself through its arboretum designation from the Nashville Tree Foundation, with more than 75 labeled tree species and varieties. The cemetery is also noted for its concentration of obelisks—45-foot-tall monuments that serve as signature memorial structures. Visitors can request maps or audio CDs for self-guided tours of the historically significant grounds.

Rebecca was an asset to me with providing me with the information needed to make an appropriate decision for the grave markers for my parents. Anxiously waiting to see the final photo. Highly recommend!
Going through an experience when a loved one has passed is hard and having a group like Mt. Olivet made it easier. They are a special group of people and I’m so grateful.
Compassionate and caring during funeral and burial process but that seems to be where the compassion and caring ends. Included footstone in funeral package but it has been almost 5 months since funeral and still no footstone or communication regarding footstone. Was told the day ...
