Join us for a journey back in time to the 1864 Civil War battle of Frankfort. Explore the historic fort and follow the same trail used by Civil War soldiers over 160 years ago. This tour is part of Haunting on the Hill, a free community event presented by the Capital City Museum and the City of Frankfort. The event starts at 3 p.m. and ends at 9 p.m. and includes a variety of activities like trick-or-treating, a spooky trail, food trucks, and more. Limited hayrides to the top of the hill can be purchased through the Capital City Museum. Don't miss this special historic experience!Tour Logistics:
