Attendees will learn about German culture and history, concluding with a bier sampling of German style beers. Visitors may even learn to speak a little Deutsch.

The tour will take place on Sunday, August 6 at 10:00am, departing from Laurel Hill Cemetery’s Gatehouse entrance at 3822 Ridge Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19132. Free parking is located in the lot across the street from the Gatehouse. The cost is $20/person general admission. Reservations are suggested.
