About this Event

Connect with Galveston's rich history in a unique way. This tour explores the captivating beauty of Trinity Cemetery, in Galveston's Historic Broadway Cemetery District. As we wander through the peaceful grounds, you'll have the chance to discover intricate symbolism adorning gravestones and monuments, each telling a unique story about the lives and beliefs of those laid to rest. Get ready to be transported through time as we unravel the tales of those who now find their eternal rest in these hallowed grounds.

Your host will be Kathleen Maca, author of Galveston's Broadway Cemeteries, who has been featured on Texas Country Reporter, Texas Chronicles, Texas Monthly, Texas Highways, Discovery + and the Magnolia Network. A local historian and writer, she has spent over 50 years researching historic cemeteries and is a Certified Tourism Ambassador.
