About the tours: The Thursday, October 26, a bus tour will focus on German settlement in Missouri. We will explore Hermann, an 1837 town established by the German Settlement Society of Philadelphia, that is now a popular heritage tourism destination. Our final stop is in Jefferson City, the state capital. The Old Munichburg neighborhood was settled by waves of German immigrants beginning in 1844. The Thursday Walking Tour will focus on Downtown Columbia architecture and urban morphology. The Saturday, October 28, bus tour will explore the Boonslick region, the first significant Missouri region to be settled by Euro-Americans away from the Mississippi River. Stops include tiny Arrow Rock, an 1829 town that is now a state historic site and is credited with beginning the historic preservation movement in Missouri, plus the Mid-Missouri communities of Franklin, New Franklin, and Boonville.
