About this Event

Join us for a special private tour of the exterior architecture of the eastern end of the National Mall, culminating in a guided tour of the interior of Library of Congress.

Imagine you had access to the world's largest library. Imagine what treasures lie in archives of tens of millions of books, manuscripts, audio recordings, films, sheet music and recordings, and maps dating back to the time of the Aztecs. But you don't have to imagine-it's all right here in DC at the Library of Congress!

Started from Thomas Jefferson's personal collection of books accumulated over his lifetime on philosophy, science, and literature, the Library of Congress has long been go-to resource for the most powerful lawmakers in America, and its doors are open to you. The library houses 162 million items, including the largest rare book collection in North America. But it is more than just a library! The Library of Congress is also a concert venue with recorded sound collections spanning jazz, American theater, folk, ethnic, and pop.

Our walking tour begins with the exterior architecture of the Union Station, Supreme Court, and culminates in an interior tour of the Library of Congress. Don't miss this opportunity to explore the mysteries hidden in America's premier house of knowledge!

Please reserve your tickets early, as capacity is limited.
