Join us for a rare opportunity to experience the Center Common and especially the area along the Sudbury River as it was before and after the Civil War. This guided tour will feature four living history tableaux among the buildings and settings of General Gordon’s childhood and later life. You will truly be taking a walk back in time as so much of this area remains intact. The tour will end at the Edgell Library where General Gordon’s possessions are on display in addition to the flag carried by the 13th Regiment through battles including Bull Run, Antietam, Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. In honor of Flag Day we will include a special tribute to this beautifully preserved symbol of Framingham’s contribution to the Civil War.
