Walking Historic Tours of Madison’s Downtown

Here’s the details:

The Madison Trust for Historic Preservation is once again offering historic walking tours of distinctive Madison neighborhoods this summer. Since the 2008 season tours began on May 3, over 100 people have come to learn a little about their city. The weather for the tours this May was as always up and down, but docents and walkers braved the rain, sun, heat and cold in true Wisconsin fashion!

We have a great season ahead. We will be introducing a new tour, “Backstage at the Orpheum,” offering an inside look at one of State Street’s most distinctive buildings, and have an expanded schedule for last year’s popular Bascom Hill tour. This year the Twilight Tours will take place in July, giving tour-goers a chance to get out and enjoy an evening in one of Madison’s beautiful historic neighborhoods.

The tours offered this week are:
State Street–June 7, 10 am and
King Street–June 7, 11 am

The tours offered next week are:
State Street–June 14, 10 am
Mansion Hill East–June 14, 11 am and
Bascom Hill–June 14, 2 pm

We’d love to see you there! See www.madisontrust.org/tours for more details.
