The Underground Railroad in Springfield
with Sam Bradley, Executive Director of the Pan African Historical Museum USA
Visit locations and meet people that salute the perseverance, ingenuity, and resilience of some of Springfield’s unsung early residents. The Underground Railroad was comprised of many people and places—Springfield was an important destination for freedom seekers and activists like Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and John Brown. Tour will begin at Tower Square.

Second Saturday Walking Tours are co-presented by Springfield Preservation Trust.
This program is supported by a grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council and and Springfield Cultural Council.
