Embark on the Davenport Audio Tour: Landmarks, Legends, and River City Stories

Once, river captains and rebels prowled these very streets, while secrets echoed from behind stained glass and city hall chambers. Davenport hides its wild history in plain sight—if you know where to look.

On this self-guided audio tour, uncover hidden tales that shaped the heart of Davenport. Hear stories most visitors miss, all while wandering at your own pace.

What scandal shook the Crescent Warehouse District to its foundations overnight? Which unsolved mystery still haunts St. Anthony’s Catholic Church after dark? What bizarre item hides in plain view at City Hall, almost invisible to the public for decades?

Move from cobbled lanes to soaring spires and backroom council drama. Each turn reveals the city’s restless spirit—a place changed by ambition, faith, and secrets waiting for discovery.

Ready to unlock Davenport’s veiled past? Press play and let the mysteries lead the way.
