Default What does "Graceland" mean?

Recently the question what Graceland means comes up quite often on BJ.de. I know that Elvis' house is called Graceland but it must have another meaning beside this, like in Fallen from Graceland.

In a dictionary I just found that the word Grace has different meanings but I couldn't find an explanation for Graceland.

Can anyone from the USA or UK help?

fallen from graceland was a pun on the popular term 'fallen from grace' which is used in many songs.

Doesn't Fallen From Graceland mean that you've lost hope?
