Underground Railroad in West Chester (walking tour)

The Underground Railroad was a network of people offering shelter and aid to enslaved men, women, and children on their journeys to freedom. This family-friendly walking tour will visit eight locations around downtown West Chester that served as a backdrop for the people involved in this clandestine operation. The tour covers approximately 1.25 miles, lasts 90 minutes, and is entirely outdoors; sidewalks and terrain may be uneven. The event is rain or shine, so please dress for the weather.

Once purchased, tickets are NONREFUNDABLE. Your admission fee supports the educational mission of the Chester County History Center. Thank you for your support!
