Field Trip to the Forefathers Monument & Town of Plymouth Walking Tour
NATIONAL MONUMENT TO THE FOREFATHERS TOUR
Faith was the driving force of the Pilgrims. This tour highlights the five principles the Pilgrims brought with them that formed the country we have today; one monument, five statues.
Standing 81 feet tall, on a hill in historic Plymouth, this hidden gem is the largest solid free standing granite monument in our country.
Construction began in 1859. Learn who donated $10 to help build it, how long it took to build, and who sponsored each statue.
Don’t just drive by it. Come and learn what each of the five statues represents and the story of how fifty-one Pilgrims formed the country we have today.
A 45-minute interpretive tour led by our guide in period clothing. Parking is free at the Monument. The tour begins at the Monument on Allerton Street for those with prepaid tickets and a reservation. The Monument is stroller and wheelchair friendly. Reservations are required.
