Green-Wood Cemetery, Lincoln and Abolitionists

Janes Walk

SOLD OUT

Led By JOHN SEMLAK, Guides Association of New York

This will be a walk in Brooklyn’s beautiful Green-Wood Cemetery, touring graves related to the abolitionist movement, Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War. We’ll see Green-Wood, and therefore New York City’s, strong links to this crucial period of US history and change.

Accessibility

This is a rural cemetery. Some steep hills will be involved. Tour will be on paved paths/roads but some graves will require walking on grass to get close to.

Location Information

RSVP is required and capacity is limited. Meeting location, ending location, and directions will be provided via email before walk date.
