This event is no longer on sale.

Sunday October 3

2:30 PM  –  4:00 PM

 

Follow the path of Great Chicago Fire’s path of destruction and discover the resiliency of the city to recover with the Chicago History Museum and Chicago Architecture Center. Starting near the source of the fire on DeKoven Street, now the Chicago Fire Department Training Facility—head to its northern boundaries in Lincoln Park. Along the way, learn about “fireproof” buildings that burned, the few structures that survived, and resilience of everyday residents in rebuilding the city.

Although the city of Chicago has moved into Phase 5 of its reopening plan and the CDC has updated guidance regarding mask mandates for fully vaccinated people, CHM will continue to require all visitors over age 2 and staff to wear a mask while participating in a group tour. As vaccinations continue, we will evaluate and update policies.
