About this event
Embark on the Williamsburg Audio Tour: Echoes of Scholars, Patriots, and Taverns
A rebel drumbeat once echoed along these Williamsburg streets just steps from where secret oaths shaped a revolution. Beneath the brick and midnight lanterns lie stories few visitors ever hear.
Take a self-guided audio tour through the city’s heart and uncover tales of ambition and intrigue hidden behind familiar facades. Wander the lanes between Bruton Parish Church, the ancient Wren Building, and beyond, unlocking scandals and mysteries as you go.
Who arrived inside Bruton Parish with an urgent message and a stolen key? What secrets linger beneath the carved wood of the Wren Building after dark? Why did locals gather in hushed circles while the world outside changed forever?
Feel the crackle of rebellion and the hush of forbidden meetings as you move from site to site. Each step peels back layers of power, conflict, and forgotten hope.
Ready to follow that rebel drumbeat and discover Williamsburg’s true story? Press play and enter the shadows.
