Join an Educator for a 10-minute exploration of the preserved Chaplain’s Office, learning about the role of faith in the penitentiary system and the complex relationships between rehabilitation and religion. The tour highlights original furnishings, prisoner-created murals, and stories of the people who lived and worked at Eastern State Penitentiary. Gain a deeper understanding of the institution’s religious foundations and of faith, resilience, and community behind prison walls. Available select times daily, included with standard admission.
