Monthly history tours are a great way to learn more about the founding of The Union League of Philadelphia and its rich history. Tours gather in and depart from the Sir John Templeton Heritage Center, a few minutes after 5:00pm. Tours are led by trained docents who are volunteers (primarily League members) who donate their time, talent and treasure to serve the mission of the Founding Forward.
These tours are complimentary and are open to both League members and prospective members. Reservations are required. A tour will accommodate up to 20 guests to ensure a good tour experience; individual reservations are limited to 4 people.
Note for prospective League members: Prospective members can request to attend a tour through the community registration link. After clicking on “community registration” an email will be generated to [email protected]. Please send an email listing your first and last name, email and phone number, and the tour date you are requesting to attend. Prospective members do not need to attend a tour with their sponsors.
