Freedom’s Friends: Abolition & the Underground Railroad History Walk

“Oberlin is perhaps the most important station along the whole line of the Underground Railway. It has rendered the most important services to freedom. It is second only to Canada as an asylum for the hunted fugitive.” Hear stories about Oberlin’s most famous freedom seekers and people known to have helped them make their way to freedom on this 90-minute history walk.

This tour is held every Saturday in June at 11:00 a.m. Advanced registration recommended; free to OHC members.
