Embark on the Georgetown Audio Tour: Echoes of Heritage and Hidden Stories
Under the limestone arches of Georgetown, whispers of ambition and faith echo through every street. In this self-guided audio tour, discover secret stories and hidden moments most visitors never see. Walk the halls where university founders clashed over vision and power.
Why did a stained-glass window spark a storm that almost divided a chapel forever? What vanished artifact lingers at the heart of Grace Heritage Center’s legend? And what small brass detail took a presidential visit from routine to scandalous?
Journey through soaring towers, sunlit pews, and the shadows between. Unfold layers of campus intrigue, local rebellion, and tales buried beneath each cornerstone. See Georgetown not as a postcard but as a thrilling tapestry of drama and discovery, stitched together by time.
Press play and let Georgetown’s secrets rise from the stone, one step at a time. The city is ready to speak—will you listen?
