Experience the Levi and Catharine Coffin home by candlelight and hear stories highlighting the experiences of freedom-seekers who chose to risk everything to escape slavery. Explore why wintertime was a common season for escapes with longer nights providing a chance to travel farther in a day and less chance of being detected. Learn why some freedom-seekers chose to stay in Fountain City before moving further north and find out how free Blacks were just as instrumental to the Underground Railroad as white conductors.
Tours start at 7:00 pm and 8:00 pm
