Located in Dodge City, Kansas, the Boot Hill Visitor and Information Center contains a reconstructed replica of old Dodge City and is located on the original site of the famous Boot Hill Cemetery. This cemetery no longer is an active cemetery. In fact, it ceased being a cemetery in the late 1800s when most of the graves were moved to other cemeteries in the area. There is supposedly no one buried there now, although they kept the original hill where the old cemetery was located and there are some old tombstones they placed on this hill for effect.
I had thought that Boot Hill Cemetery still had some original graves, so I was disappointed when I found out there were none left. Since there are no longer any original graves or tombstones there, I found the whole Boot Hill areas of Dodge City simply a tourist place and not really a historic site. But it was well maintained and had good people working there. I don’t recommend making a special trip just to see Dodge City, but by all means stop there if you’re in the neighborhood.
