Construire une nation : visite de l'architecture de Salem

Aperçu
Salem is one of the oldest cities in America and it has witnessed some of this country's devastating lows and magnificent highs. From the simple, rustic forms of frontier survival when their world was held together by religion and superstition, to the grand and imposing mansions typical of when Salem was wealthiest city in early America; all of this is captured in amazingly well-preserved detail that you can see today.

You'll be led by an experienced Architectural Historian and Preservationist as we uncover the secrets to the elusive character of this ancient, storied city using the buildings that have seen it all.

Every tour I take with Rekindled History ends up being the best tour I've ever been on. I always make sure to book a tour on a new topic with Rekindled History whenever I am in Salem; without fail, every tour ends up being one of the highlights of my trip. I came away from my first trip with a new appreciation for architecture that has persisted for years. Vijay teaches history in a way that is equally easy to understand and memorable. His explanations are clear and entertaining for people of all ages. He has obviously done extensive research into local history as well as architectural history as a whole. He can reference original documents off the top of his head and provide digital links to historical maps for further learning. He has been able to answer any question I've ever had - even very niche ones - with specific examples. You can tell he is passionate about his studies and loves sharing knowledge with others. If you want an engaging tour led by a friendly, skilled educator who teaches you fascinating true facts and not absurd urban legends, then this is the company for you. It's so nice to attend a tour led by a qualified professional and not a high school student. I 100% recommend Rekindled History to anyone and everyone.

Wonderful walking tour hosted by a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide! Vijay is passionate about Salem history. He begins the tour at the Daniel's House, an example of expanded first period (early 17th century) architecture. We continued on foot, looking at the facades of several homes in the maritime district, moving through the Georgian and Federalist periods and beyond. Questions and comments are welcome, and our host seems to have an endless font of knowledge about history, preservation, and architectural detail and social influence. I am a resident of this town walking in a neighborhood that I know rather well, yet I went home with an enhanced appreciation of what is right around me. Well worth it indeed!
