Our Fort Walker Walkng Tour will focus on how and why a fort, built to defend the city from Sherman's advancing troups, came to be situated in Grant Park.

Parking is free. The tour begins on the traffic circle adjacent to the Atlanta Cyclorama (mapquest: 800 Cherokee Avenue, Atlanta 30315) Reservations are encouraged.
