About this Event

At 478 acres, Green-Wood is a treasure trove of history (and mystery), but if you don’t know where to look, you may miss a few highlights! Fortunately, we’re here to help you discover some of the hidden gems that often go overlooked: actress and celebrity mistress, Lola Montez; famed mobster, Joey Gallo; founder of Coney Island’s Steeplechase Park, George C. Tilyou; and many more! Whether you visit weekly or are exploring Green-Wood for the first time, we guarantee you’ll hear some new stories to share with your friends!
