Celebrate the 158th anniversary of the full emancipation of enslaved African Americans with the Marietta History Center. This walking tour through the Marietta City Cemetery will be led by History Center Director, Amy Reed, and will highlight African Americans buried here who were enslaved or who became leaders in our black community fighting for equality and civil rights.

This is a rain or shine event. The tour is conducted over gravel and uneven pathways, so please plan accordingly. The tour begins at the white house located at the center of the Cemetery.
