Perhaps the nation's largest and most elaborate seat of municipal government, Philadelphia's City Hall is open once again for citizens and visitors to explore through guided tours. The tour now includes the Tower Tour.
See the city from William Penn's point of view! The City Hall Tower Tour offers a panoramic view of Philadelphia's landscape from 548 feet above ground. Ascend to the top of the historic building via elevator to enjoy a spectacular view of the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and city skyline from the city’s highest open-air observation deck.
The City Hall Interior and Exterior Tour explores the history, art, and architecture of the world's highest masonry load-bearing structure, which consists of 88 million bricks! Learn more interesting facts and view the building's grandest rooms (like the above-pictured City Council Caucus Room) on this guided tour, which also includes a tour around the building's perimeter that explores the more than 250 sculptures designed by Alexander Milne Calder that adorn the structure.
This event is repeated the next day, 9/25/24.
Note: Cancellations with refunds are accepted through 9/17/24. Should you need to cancel by that date, you will be issued a credit to your WC account, to be used for future purchases.
