I am not sure the stars really matter here -- the whole campus was amazing, and the crypt was an interesting part of the naval history there. John Paul Jones was a fascinating character whose remains were relocated to the crypt below the cathedral. The tomb is ornate, marble with dolphins, and JPJs history can be found on the walls encircling it. Worth visiting if you enjoy random historical tidbits!

The crypt is amazing. The fine workmanship and attention to detail is phenomenal. A must see if your visiting the campus. This is my third visit to it. Use to have a honor hard. But our leadership deemed it unnecessary. For some reason traditions seem just to be fading away.

Attention to detail is amazing. What a great opportunity to honor the first Navy officer in the USs brand new Navy. We loved the breadth of information included.

Well worth the trip. Seeing the crypt of a Revolutionary hero was very special

Ive not yet begun fighting.... Bring your IDs to get on base, theres a handicap entrance around the right if the church that takes you strait to the crypt, also its ok if you are not with a tour, just hang back, and wait for them to go, then follow. If you enter cathedral go up and make a left then take those steps down.

Perfect example of the Russian-American part of history.

There are many chapels surrounding the place and the coffin is immaculate.

Located under the chapel of the naval academey. Open to the public, but 18+ will need to show ID. Intresting history.

Cool history

If you like early American history you have to visit the Crypt. I literally stumbled on this.

Amazing!

Great

Wow!

Flew over the John Paul Jones crypt and said some prayers for him.
