The Secret Lives of Turners Falls Germans

February 1, 2025

February 8 @ 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm Free.

After the canal was rebuilt in 1869, German immigrants were among the first to move to Turners Falls and first to witness the planned village’s growing pains. Join DCR staff as we use photos, news clippings, and oral history to figure out how they built their community and traditions through mutual aid and hard work. For youth and adults. Meet in the Great Hall.
