Join Historic Milwaukee tour guide, Judy Wimmer, Ph.D. Nineteenth Century American Religions, for a walking tour of churches in downtown Milwaukee. The tour will include grand churches in the Gothic Revival and Northern European Gothic traditions, Lombard and Victorian Romanesque and Byzantine Revival, constructed as early as the late 1860s through the 1920s, reflecting different traditions and different ethnic groups. Each has its own distinct place in the city’s history.
The tour includes a walking tour of many of the churches in the neighborhood as well as an interior tour of a select number of churches (pending availability).
