Beneath Annapolis skies, silent sentinels stand watch over secrets that shaped the fate of a nation. These quiet corners of Anne Arundel County brim with stories few ever hear.

This self-guided audio tour takes you beyond the academy gates and into the heart of history. Walk hidden pathways where daring ambition and quiet rebellion unfold just steps from the Chesapeake.

Why did a single midnight dare at the Herndon Monument spark a tradition soaked in sweat and rivalry? What haunts the shadows around Jeannette Monument—tragedy, or unfinished business? And which faded inscription in the Naval Academy Cemetery hides the whisper of an unsolved betrayal?

Move through hallowed grounds where legends were born and destinies altered. Each step peels back layers of scandal, valor, and sacrifice, revealing Annapolis as it has never been seen before.

Begin your journey where the secrets wait beneath the silent monuments.
