Мадамс оф ДЦ Валкинг Тоур

Преглед

This tour is offered the first and third Friday of the month. Check website for exact schedule. All tours available for private tours.

The Madams in DC walking tour gives you a totally unique side of DC's history that you won't hear anywhere else. The Civil War completely transformed the capital, and turned Pennsylvania Avenue into a red light district lined with bawdy houses, taverns, theaters, and commercial ventures. Hard to imagine, now that it's lined with monolithic government buildings! You'll learn about how the women who worked in these brothels made their way in life, and even had an impact on affairs of government.

Тамо где је Фреедом Плаза сада некада била озлоглашена четврт позната као Мурдер Баи. Док шетамо овим пространим отвореним простором који се тренутно користи за фестивале и музичке догађаје, чућете све о тавернама, коцкарницама и борделима популарним међу војницима Северне Арме који су тамо стајали.

Национални архивски музеј

Настављајући наше путовање кроз време, научићете о животима проститутки у грађанском рату у ДЦ-у и о улози коју су играли у друштву, док пролазимо поред некадашње локације највеће централне урбане пијаце у ДЦ-у.

The Madams of DC tour is a unique perspective on the civil war era and survival. We enjoyed the stories of the Madams and how the industry delineated the quality of the brothels based on location which was also based wealth and influence of the clientele. After this tour I really feel that the current state of the industry should be criminal. The public’s health would be better served by making the business legal, returning control to the workers and putting Pimps out of business.

Just experienced the 'Madams of DC' tour by Off the Mall Tours, and I can't recommend it enough! Katie Kirkpatrick, our guide, was absolutely amazing—engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about D.C.'s hidden history. She took us on a journey through time, revealing how madams, soldiers, and officers were the backbone of D.C.'s economy during the Civil War. With an astonishing 6% of the population in this line of work and 95% of the businesses being women-run, Katie made sure this was more than a tour—it was a revelation. If you're in D.C., this is a must-do.
