PUBLIC "TRAM DAY" TOURS
These are basic tours for first-time visitors which provide an overview of
the history, art, architecture and landscape of Spring Grove.
Join trained Spring Grove docents for a relaxing drive on a tram
through the historic and beautiful grounds of our nation's second
largest cemetery. You'll learn and see the history, art, architecture
and landscape that make Spring Grove a National Historic Landmark
on this 1-hour tour. Look for the tram just inside the main entrance
gate to the cemetery off Spring Grove Avenue.
Reservations are required - tram capacity is limited to 25 people.
All tours will leave promptly at their scheduled start time. Anyone who
has made a reservation and does not arrive on time automatically forfeits
their seat(s) to others who were unable to obtain a reservation.
Public Tram Tours fill up early and very quickly.
Registration for these tours will open 30 days prior to the tour date.
Notification of cancellation is required.
Call 853-6877 or email tcoordinator@springgrove.org
