SUMMARY:Federal Hill Beyond the Views: A Monumental City Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimoreans celebrated atop Federal Hill when we ratified the U.S. Constitution. We used it to defend the city from the British in the War of 1812 and to make sure we stayed in the Union in the Civil War. We have even tunnelled under it to quarry minerals. Join us on a tour of Federal Hill and the neighborhood around it to learn about this waterfront community’s rich history\, including stops at one of the last wooden houses in the city\, the oldest house in Federal Hill\, and the wonderful alley houses along Churchill Street. \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Federal Hill\, Downtown\, Mount Vernon and Ridgely’s Delight on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:In February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us on this walking tour as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse. \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:Victorian-Era Seton Hill: A Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore’s Seton Hill neighborhood\, once known as the city’s French Quarter\, has a rich nineteenth-century history. On this walking tour through the beautiful old streets of Seton Hill\, we will explore the surviving traces and look for the ghosts of the Victorian city. Come join historian Emma Katherine Bilski to step off the beaten path and hear stories of this neighborhood\, including Baltimore’s Black Catholic history\, student “pranks and misdemeanors\,” the real history of Baltimore’s asylums\, and the human history of America’s oldest Gothic Revival masterpiece. \nAccessibility: We will be walking over some uneven grassy terrain and paving stones in addition to city sidewalks\, and the tour will cover approximately 1.5 miles.

SUMMARY:Historic Ridgely’s Delight
DESCRIPTION:For a tiny neighborhood squeezed between the University of Maryland and Camden Yards\, Ridgely’s Delight contains an oversized history.

SUMMARY:Sustainable\, Small Batch Production: A Factory Tour of Mount Royal Soaps
DESCRIPTION:Mount Royal Soap Company was founded in Baltimore\, MD in the Spring of 2014 by three soap-obsessed friends: Matt\, Pat & Sam. With the explosion of soap and sanitizer demand during the pandemic they opened their first manufacturing space in the Woodberry neighborhood just 2 miles from the Remington store. You may have seen their products at Lexington Market or a farmer’s market. \nIf you have wondered what goes into creating their palm oil free\, plant based\, cruelty free products\, this is your chance! Our tour will look behind the scenes and give you the opportunity to ask any burning questions you may have. On June 18\, join us for a fascinating tour of sustainably sourced bath and body products made through a small batch production process right here in Baltimore. \n**Every attendee will receive a free bar of wonderful Mount Royal soap!

SUMMARY:Federal Hill Beyond the Views: A Monumental City Tour
DESCRIPTION:Baltimoreans celebrated atop Federal Hill when we ratified the U.S. Constitution.

SUMMARY:Out of the Ashes: The Great Baltimore Fire of 1904
DESCRIPTION:In February 1904\, Baltimore’s chief firefighter cabled Washington DC: “Desperate fire here. Must have help at once!” A tremendous fire was sweeping through downtown and showed little signs of stopping. Not until 5:00 p.m. the next day was the fire brought under control. Overall\, it destroyed 1500 buildings\, left 35\,000 people unemployed\, and damaged $150 million of property. Resilient Baltimore rebounded quickly\, erecting new buildings\, widening streets\, and improving fire safety designs. Rising out of the ashes\, Baltimore used the fire to rethink the city\, and the downtown we know today is shaped largely by this incident. Join us on this walking tour as we see what 2500 degrees Fahrenheit heat can do to blocks of solid stone\, learn how the fire shaped architecture locally and across the country\, and hear the tale of one of the fire’s great heroes: Goliath the horse. \nOur Monumental City tours are guided walks exploring iconic Baltimore landmarks in Downtown\, Ridgely’s Delight\, Mount Vernon and Federal Hill on the first four Sundays of each month from April through November\, except holiday weekends.

SUMMARY:Nuclear Ship Savannah Tour
DESCRIPTION:On May 22\, take a step back in time to the Cold War with a tour of a ship formerly powered by uranium! The Nuclear Ship Savannah\, the world’s first nuclear-powered merchant ship\, is truly one-of-a-kind. In the 1950s\, President Dwight Eisenhower desired a “peace ship” that would serve as an ambassador for the non-weaponized use of atomic power. On July 21\,1959\, First Lady Mamie Eisenhower christened the $46.9 million vessel at its launching. After traveling almost half a million miles and visiting over 77 international and domestic ports\, the reactor was de-fueled in 1975. Currently docked in Baltimore\, the ship has been afloat for 60 years now and is still going strong. We hope you’ll join us to tour this registered National Historic Landmark and take in the sleek modern “Atomic Age” interiors decorated with none other than atom diagrams.
