Princeton Cemetery (at Nassau Presbyterian Church)

This historic cemetery is the final resting place of several prominent figures from the Revolutionary War, including John Witherspoon—signer of the Declaration of Independence and president of Princeton University—and Aaron Burr, a Continental Army officer who later served as Vice President of the United States. Their graves, along with those of other notable patriots, create a powerful connection to the political and military leadership of the Revolutionary era. Today, the site endures as a solemn tribute to the individuals who helped shape the nation’s founding.
