Rute

1. Harpers Ferry is where the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers meet, and where defining American stories collide. Here, George Washington envisioned industry, Thomas Jefferson admired nature, and Meriwether Lewis prepared for a journey that would change a nation. It is also the stage of John Brown’s raid, Civil War strategy under Stonewall Jackson, and the fight for equality led by voices like Frederick Douglass and W. E. B. Du Bois. This experience brings history to life. Feel the wind atop Bolivar Heights, hear the rushing water that powered early American industry, and touch the bricks that sheltered abolitionists. The tour covers geography and natural history, the John Brown Raid, the Civil War, Storer College and the Niagara Movement, transportation, waterpower, and innovation. Explore key areas with a mix of short drives and guided walks, ending in historic Lower Town. After the tour, you’re free to explore museums and shops on your own.

About Frederick

Frederick is a historic Maryland city of church spires and brick streets in a valley beneath the Catoctin Mountains, close to Civil War battlefields.

Frederick sits in a broad valley beneath Catoctin Mountain in north-central Maryland. Its centre of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century brick buildings is known as the City of Clustered Spires for the church steeples that rise above its roofs. Carroll Creek Linear Park, a landscaped promenade with bridges and a mural, runs through downtown. Francis Scott Key, who wrote the words of The Star-Spangled Banner, practised law in Frederick and is buried in Mount Olivet Cemetery.
