11:00 AM - Freedom's Friends Underground Railroad and Abolition History Walk
History Walk begins at the front steps of First Church (Corner of Main Street and Lorain Street).

“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.

Space is limited, reservation recommended. Register on-line or call 440.774.1700. This history walk will be cancelled if it is raining at start time and registrants may request refunds or transfers.
