Beacon Hill walking tour |
14 Beacon Street National Park Service Boston, MA +1 617 742 5415 (Organizers) http://www.nps.gov/ |
The Beacon Hill neighborhood of Boston has several sites significant to the history of African Americans, commemorated by this 1.6-mile trail. From June through August, the National Park Service conducts free two-hour tours that begin at the corner of Beacon and Park Streets. Landmarks include a memorial to the first black regiment to fight in the Civil War and the African Meeting House, the first black-led church in the United States. Many of the historic homes on the trail are still privately owned and may only be viewed from the outside. Call to arrange private tours in the offseason. Review © 2009, Wcities |
