WILMINGTON — The Bellamy Mansion Museum will be offering a 90-minute walking tour of historic downtown on Saturday, April 18, at 9 a.m.

Led by Executive Director Gareth Evans, the tour will focus on the people and places of antebellum Wilmington while exploring the port city’s role in the American Civil War, beginning and ending at the Bellamy Mansion Museum, 503 Market St.

The cost is $20 per person, plus tax. Space is limited, so registration is required online at the Bellamy Mansion Museum Store. This is a rain or shine event, within reason. The tours are appropriate for all ages, but please note they may not be suitable for anyone with limited mobility.
