During this time of heightened awareness for our common well being, we know that it is important to take “social distancing” into consideration while continuing to live life. And while the MoDH remains closed for the time being, there are still ways to engage with our community’s history individually or in smaller numbers.

We’ll be putting out suggestions to help folks stay in touch with the stories which make Durham so interesting, and do it safely.

Start with a tour of our History Groves. Take a moment to sit among the quiet, natural settings and learn about individuals who had an impact on their community. Click the map above for more and find directions to each Grove.
