Walking Tour: The Civil War in Schenectady

It’s the middle of the 19th century and America has been fractured in two. As Union and Confederate forces battle, the fate of the nation hangs in the balance. In this tour we’ll examine how Schenectady fit into this broad struggle. We’ll walk the streets and meet the people who lived through this crisis. We have limited space due to social distancing. Tickets are $10, free for members, and must be purchased in advance at www.schenectadyhistorical.org/programs
