FALL WALKING TOUR

The FMIA Architecture and History Walking Tour isn’t just a stroll—it’s a chance to explore our historic district, check out cool landmarks and architecture, and hear some fascinating stories that helped shape our community. Our friendly guides will show both familiar spots and hidden treasures, pointing out local businesses along the way so people will see the neighborhood in a whole new light.

This year’s walking tour is Sunday, October 12, from 12:00 pm - 4:00pm. The route will start at Washington Square Park and move through the triangle and hit all the highlights—culture, buildings, nature.

Join us and be part of an unforgettable journey through the living history of Faubourg Marigny!

Why A Walking Tour?

FMIA’s mission is rooted in the belief that understanding our history is essential to building a thriving, connected future. Through interactive events, educational programming, and ongoing conservation efforts, we strive to make our shared past accessible and meaningful to every member of the community.

The FMIA Walking Tour is more than an excursion; it is a living experience that guides participants through our historic district, introducing them to landmarks, architecture, and hidden tales that have shaped our identity. Led by knowledgeable guides, the tour features both well-known sites and lesser-known gems, inviting attendees to see their surroundings through new eyes.
