The Black Heritage Trail in the city explores the nineteenth century history of the African American community in Boston, which was centered around Beacon Hill. This trail is made up of fourteen different sites, starting at the Robert Gould Shaw Memorial situated on Boston’s Beacon Street. Visitors can discover the sites on the trail as part of a self-guided tour during any day and time. Site brochures and trail maps can be found at the Abiel Smith School. Ranger-led walking tours of the Black Heritage Trail are also available during specific days and times, mostly during the summer season.
