Tours
The area outside the Museum's doors -- the warm mineral springs in open pools, walkways, park, 18th structures -- and in the surrounding blocks are everyday living artifacts of the area's history.
Two self-guided tours are available to introduce you to the history as you stroll around town. Another two self-guided tours cover the county and the Eastern Panhandle. They can be accessed below. The local tours can be picked up in souvenir booklet and map form at the Museum and other spots around town.
