What mysteries lie in the attics of Alexandria's historic sites?  Ever wonder what is behind that brick wall?  Discover this and much more in May on the Attics and Alleys Tour.  In honor of National Preservation Month and Virginia's Year of the Historic Home, explore spaces not normally open to the public at Gadsby's Tavern Museum, Carlyle House, Lee-Fendall, and the Apothecary Museum.  Tour highlights included the attics of each site, historic grafitti, and the alleys that connect the city.

Tours offered every Saturday in May, starting at 9 AM at Lee-Fendall House.  $25 per person, $20 GTMS and volunteers.  Light refreshments included.  Plan for a 3-hour experience and then grab lunch in Old Town!  This tour includes walking many city blocks, narrow stairs, and access to confined spaces.  Walking shoes encouraged.  Held rain or shine.  Photography permitted.
