East < GO > West

On the east end of Canute, on an old section of Route 66 east of 9th St., is the Holy Family Cemetery. It's worth a visit to see the Grotto and the war memorial in the highway median.

The Grotto is back towards the tree line, but easily seen from the road.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
