Harriet Tubman Museum and Educational Center honors the life and career of Underground Railroad conductor Harriet Tubman, who was born in nearby Bucktown in 1822 and famously served as a Civil War spy, nurse, and suffragist.
Today, the center honors Tubman's contributions to human rights and humanitarian causes, preserving her life and legacy for future generations to learn about. A gorgeous mural painted by artist Michael Rosato depicts Tubman's life, while a documentary expands upon her humanitarian efforts. Exhibits also detail her contributions to the American Civil War. The center is part of the area's greater Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway, which connects more than 30 sites connected to the Underground Railroad via self-guided scenic driving tour.
