Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor Center
Address: 4068 Golden Hill Road, Church Creek, MD 21622
This park protects the Maryland Eastern Shore landscape where Harriet Tubman was born into slavery around 1822, escaped in 1849, and returned again and again to guide some 70 people to freedom. The visitor center in Church Creek tells her story where it happened, amid the marshes and woods she navigated by night.
Explore the visitor center's powerful exhibits and walk the surrounding landscape. For a challenge, drive the 125-mile Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway, tracing her routes through Dorchester County.
