Mount Holly Cemetery in Little Rock (Pulaski County) is known as the Westminster Abbey of Arkansas due to the many important figures in the fields of art, literature, religion, and politics who are buried there. Since 1843, governors, generals, artists, religious leaders, and other citizens of note have been laid to rest within the confines of the cemetery. In 1970, the cemetery became one of the earliest cemeteries to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
