Abstract
Radio galaxies are the only non-blazar AGN detected in the VHE (E > 100 GeV) band. These objects enable the investigation of the main substructures of the AGN, in particular the core, the jet and its interaction with the intergalactic environment. VERITAS observations have included exposures on a number of radio galaxies. Recently, the discovery by Fermi of GeV emission from the radio galaxy NGC 1275 triggered VERITAS observations of this source. Results from the VERITAS observations of radio galaxies and future plans are presented.
