If you're dying for something different to do this Valentine's Day, join the King's Chapel History Program on a candlelit crypt tour, exploring the history of love, loss, and laying the dead to rest! Our popular alternative Valentine's Day program is back for 2022!
Would you wear jewelry made from your deceased loved one's hair?
Would you consider preparing their body yourself and hosting the wake in your living room?
Uncover the history of American mourning traditions, funeral customs, and burial practices as they relate to the loss of a loved one throughout Boston's history. Discover the memorials within King's Chapel and explore the crypt beneath King's Chapel, walking among the 21 tombs, and experience the stories of the historic people and couples laid to rest within them.
Tours offered at 5:30 PM and 7 PM on Fridays and Saturdays throughout February.
IMPORANT NOTE: In accordance with local public health mandates in the City of Boston, attendees must show proof of COVID-19 vaccination upon arrival. Masks must be worn throughout the entirety of the tour. Thank you for your cooperation.
