Join us for an historic walking tour through Holland to learn about the harrowing events of the 1871 Holland Fire.
The 150th anniversary of “The Night America Burned” is October 8-9, 2021. Five fires sprang up across the Midwest, including the Holland Fire which burned 80% of the city. Join us at the Holland Museum for a special day of remembrance including a display of artifacts that survived the fire, a timeline of events, readings of first-hand accounts from the fire, and historical walking tours.
Please check in at the Holland Museum before the tour start time. Prior to the 3:00 pm tour, please join us for readings of first-hand accounts from the fire and to see the artifact display. Readings and display are included with museum admission.
