Tour the Shipyard!, Wednesday October 16 or 30

Have you ever gazed over the river and wondered about the historic Portsmouth Naval Shipyard? Do you have relatives who may have worked there, or served on a submarine stationed there for repairs? Have you ever been curious about the naval prison? Would you like to see the Russo-Japanese Peace Treaty signing room?  This month we are taking a tour, and look forward to hosting this exciting event with the staff of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard!

Shipyard Historian, Joe Gluckert and Ken Goldman, retired Navy engineer with extensive submarine experience, will lead two tours departing from the Portsmouth Public Library. We will visit the Shipyard Museum, have a general tour of the shipyard, and view the room where dignitaries from Russia and Japan gathered to sign the Russo-Japanese Peace Treaty in 1905.  The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard is the nation's longest continuously operating Navy Shipyard, so you won't want to miss the opportunity to visit and experience 223 years of history.

Registration is required.
