Brick streets echo with the footsteps of revolutionaries and governors where Dover has plotted rebellion and peace for centuries. Behind the stately walls of Legislative Hall and the Governor’s Mansion lurk power struggles, secret bargains, and eccentric traditions that shaped the very first state.

This self-guided audio tour takes you deep into the heart of downtown Dover, unlocking the untold stories and overlooked corners hidden in plain sight. Bypass the usual history lesson and unlock the city’s true character through unexpected tales.

Who whispered threats beneath the golden dome as Delaware nearly turned its back on the nation? What shadowy presence still stirs some to lock their doors at the Governor’s mansion? And why did a stubborn lawmaker demand a barrel of oysters before casting his vote?

Roam from lush green parks to hallowed chambers where history pulsed with tension and intrigue. The city changes with each step and chapter.

Start listening now and uncover the secret layers beneath Dover’s quiet streets.
