Congressional Cemetery is neither owned by Congress nor reserved for the legislature's private use. Founded in 1807 by members of Christ Church, it acquired its popular name after the church offered 300 sites to the government for the burial of U.S. senators and representatives.
Now maintained by the nonprofit Association for the Preservation of Historic Congressional Cemetery (HCC) which took over property management in 1976.
