Embark on the Portland Audio Tour: Echoes of Time from Mansion to Maritime Rails

Beneath Portland’s cobblestone streets, secrets pulse from every brick row and harbor breeze. This self-guided audio tour plunges into the Old Port’s haunted wharves and the soulful echoes of Green Memorial A.M.E. Zion Church, all the way to hidden masterpieces within the Portland Museum of Art. Unravel the urgent tale of smuggled abolitionists under moonlit docks. Who vanished without a trace during a Prohibition raid that shook the city to its core? What infamous artifact sits quietly, often ignored among the museum’s celebrated works?

Chart a course through battles for freedom, whispers of rebellion, and scandals tucked just out of sight. Every step transforms familiar lanes into stages of lost triumphs and unspoken courage.

Unlock the layers beneath Portland’s surface. Press play and walk these veiled histories into the light.
