All aboard the trolley at Bellefontaine Cemetery and Arboretum for a special 1904 World’s Fair trolley tour! From David R. Francis to Isaac Taylor, this tour will spotlight the people who helped shape the event that took place in Forest Park from April 30 through December 1, 1904.
20 million visitors attended the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, and some of those attendees traveled to Bellefontaine Cemetery to pay homage to a person directly connected to the new American Territory acquired in 1803!
Trolley tour tickets are free with a suggested donation of $5 each. Register now!
