SUMMARY:America’s Oldest Ironworks: A Tour at G. Krug & Son
DESCRIPTION:As the nation’s oldest continuously operating ironworks company\, G. Krug & Son literally has helped build Baltimore. For over 200 years\, the firm has fabricated distinctive components of such notable landmarks as the Baltimore Basilica\, the Washington Monument and the Baltimore Zoo. G. Krug began in 1810 by Augustas Schwatka\, and by 1871\, Gustav Krug became the sole proprietor of the “bell hanger and locksmith” company. G. Krug today is owned by Peter Krug\, a fifth generation Krug ironworker\, and continues to fabricate artistic ironwork in the same building where it was founded. Mr. Krug and his ironworking colleagues will lead our tour of the iron working shop and museum. We’ll be treated to archival blueprints\, century-old rare pieces of ironwork that are no longer made anywhere\, and their two hundred year old ironworks building where they produce wonderful pieces as they have for over two centuries. There will be a light wine and cheese reception.

SUMMARY:The Catacombs Under Westminster: Two Hundred Years of Tombs and Edgar Allan Poe’s Gravesite
DESCRIPTION:Join us to explore the eerie catacombs underneath Baltimore’s First Presbyterian Church\, now called Westminster Hall\, and the graves that surround it\, including the final resting place of Edgar Allan Poe. The burial ground predates the church\, which was built on arches above the gravesites\, so that the graveyard and its tombstones lie both underneath and around the building. We bet you will also recognize more than a few Baltimore street names as we walk among the patriots and civic leaders buried at Westminster including Calhoun\, Hollins\, Gilmore\, and Bentalou. All told\, the compact cemetery next to the University of Maryland School of Law is the final resting place for over 1\,000 individuals. We can’t wait to see you “Where Baltimore’s History Rests in Peace!”

SUMMARY:The New Lexington Market & Exploring the Neighborhood Around It
DESCRIPTION:For over 200 years\, Lexington Market’s wooden sheds and concrete stalls have been a gathering place for Baltimoreans. And the market is still evolving! In October 2022\, the new Lexington Market opened in a brand new building. On this tour we’ll first explore the surrounding neighborhood to discover how Baltimore emerged as a leading industrial and economic city in the 19th century. Immigration\, slavery\, commerce and major changes in transportation were all part of the mix here in Baltimore and the country as a whole. We’ll end at the new market to see its wonderful public art and\, of course\, its merchants (new and old). We hope you’ll join Johns Hopkins\, Executive Director of Baltimore Heritage\, for this tour beginning at 10:30 am. And if you can make it\, come early for the dedication of the new History Walk in the market plaza at 10 am!

SUMMARY:Feisty Females of Fells Point
DESCRIPTION:On October 1\, join us for a walking tour of the Feisty Females of Fells Point! Everyone knows that this neighborhood has a rich history\, but do you know about the Caribbean immigrant\, Mary Lange\, who dared to teach children of color out of her home and rose to be the first Black mother-superior in American history? How about the single mom who helped stop the development of an interstate highway through these historic streets? Spoiler–it’s not Barbara Mikulski\, but of course we’ll talk about her important work too. And we’ll stop by the former rowhouse of someone else you might know–Billie Holiday. We hope you’ll join us and tour guide Robin Minor to hear about these fierce women who helped forge Fells Point into the vibrant\, distinctive neighborhood it is today.

SUMMARY:Herring Run Archaeology & Heritage: A Behind The Scenes Tour
DESCRIPTION:On September 30\, join Baltimore Heritage and the Friends of Herring Run Parks to experience this urban oasis like you never have before! The co-founders of the Herring Run Archaeology Project\, Lisa Kraus and Jason Shellenhamer\, will share with us discoveries from years of archaeological and historical exploration here. As we walk around the park\, they will guide us through the new Herring Run Park Heritage Trail\, which starts 11\,000 years ago with the discovery of a pre-European contact Native American campsite\, and goes all the way to 20th century Romani caravan bases. Herring Run Park was once the heart of the Eutaw Farm plantation and enslaved African Americans lived and worked on this land. We’ll learn about extraordinary people like Emeline Jones\, who after emancipation\, became a world-renowned chef in Washington\, DC. Centuries later\, Black Baltimoreans fought here for equal access to the park. You’ll be amazed by all of the history packed into this one park. We hope to see you on this fascinating tour!

SUMMARY:“Life Goes On:” The Legacy of Henrietta Lacks and Turner Station
DESCRIPTION:Don’t know who Henrietta Lacks was? Most of the world didn’t until about ten years ago. Mrs. Lacks is best recognized for her immortal cells\, which scientists and doctors still use today to study the effects of toxins\, drugs\, hormones and viruses on people without experimenting on humans. Her cells helped create the HPV and polio vaccines. Yet it took some twenty-five years before the Lacks family received any knowledge of the important contribution of their beloved wife and mother. Please join us and the Henrietta Lacks Legacy Group for a walking tour of Turner Station in Dundalk\, the last home of Henrietta Lacks\, to hear about Henrietta\, her family\, and her life in Turner Station. \nIn 1951\, Mrs. Lacks went to Johns Hopkins Hospital for treatment of cervical cancer. Without informing Mrs. Lacks\, Hopkins doctors noticed that the removed cancer cells continued to grow in the lab. This marked the first instance of continuous growth of human cells outside the body. Henrietta died on October 4\, 1951 from her cancer. She was 31 years old. \nDoctors named her cells HeLa (from the first letters of her first and last names) and\, without Lacks family approval\, began sending them to laboratories around the world for research. Mrs. Lacks’ story weaves together important ethical and racial issues of the medical industrial complex\, segregation\, and the polarized economy of Baltimore. We are honored to be partnering with the Henrietta Lacks Legacy Group for this tour. Join guides Servant Speed and Adele Newson-Horst as we walk through Henrietta’s Turner Station community and learn about her incredible story. \nWant to learn more about Henrietta Lacks?  \nThe Double-Edged Helix” in Rolling Stone Magazine\n“The Miracle of HeLa” in Ebony Magazine\nThe Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot

SUMMARY:Baltimore’s Marble Hill: How A Neighborhood Shaped the Civil Rights Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guided tour of Baltimore’s Marble Hill neighborhood\, which was the home to an astonishing amount of groundbreaking Civil Rights leaders. Reverend Harvey Johnson began one of the first collective action movements here in the 1880s. In the 1930s Lillie Carroll Jackson engaged youth in “The Movement” and pioneered new non-violent protest tactics that were later picked up in cities across the country. Thurgood Marshall grew up here\, as did the chief lobbyist for the 1964 Civil Rights Act\, Clarence Mitchell. Most recently this was the district for the late Representative Elijah Cummings\, one of the most powerful voices for civil rights in Washington. Join us to learn how fundamental pillars of the Civil Rights Movement got built here by driven\, activist neighbors with their eyes on the prize.
