Description: F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, the iconic literary couple of the Jazz Age, are buried together in Rockville, Maryland, at St. Mary's Catholic Church Cemetery. Their graves, marked by a simple, shared headstone, have become a pilgrimage site for admirers of their work and legacy. The headstone bears the final line of F. Scott Fitzgerald's most famous novel, "The Great Gatsby": "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past." This poignant epitaph encapsulates the enduring struggle and nostalgia that permeate his writing. Despite their tumultuous lives and careers, the Fitzgeralds' final resting place offers a serene and reflective space for visitors to honor their contributions to American literature.
