Experience our premier event of the year, the Candle Lantern Tour- an annual tradition since 1979! Take an entertaining 30-minute guided candlelit tour through time with stops at the blacksmith’s shop, hospital, powder magazine, barracks jail, and more. Watch out – there may be a sneak attack by Union ships in the river! Don’t miss the exclusive nighttime cannon firings. This is a fun event for groups!

Tours begin at 6:40 pm and last about 30 minutes each. The last tour ends at 10 pm.
