Step through the gates and back in time to another era. A place where the final chapter in the lives of some of Austin's earliest citizens are laid to eternal rest under ornate, Victorian headstones and iron work. Established in 1839, Oakwood has a host of notables from Austin history - from A.J. Zilker to O. Henry's wife, Athol Estes - buried there. A great source for charcoal rubbings for the artistically inspired, a misty, foggy morning is a must for achieving the ultimate Gothic experience.
