Tuesdays – Depot Ave Walking Tour
Historical Walking Tours of the 2025 season
The “Depot Ave Walking Tour” on Tuesdays, at 10:30am, leaving from the Hallett Barn Visitors Center (please arrive 15 minutes ahead of time).
Falmouth’s maritime past is proudly remembered, but there’s more to the history of our town. When the railroad arrived in 1871, Falmouth’s link to the world shifted from the sea to the rails. Trains brought visitors and freight to town multiple times daily. A bustling commercial zone arose, centered around the hub of the train station on Depot Ave. Join us as we explore this aspect of Falmouth’s industrial past and how it led to discussions over zoning and development that we live with today. Along the way, you’ll also see lovely examples of late 19th and early 20th century homes built by Cape Codders who gave up seafaring and prospered in professions like insurance, hospitality, and retail.
