Earthworks Guided Walking Exploration
Earthworks Guided Walking Exploration
When the first American settlers arrived at the juncture of the Muskingum and Ohio rivers, they observed an extensive and intriguing complex of earthen walls and mounds, leading to much speculation about how old they were, who built them, and to what purpose they were created. Over 230 years later, we have a general idea of when these earthworks were created and how they were used, even as many questions remain to be answered. Join Castle archaeologist Wes Clarke as we take a detailed look at these prehistoric remains, including significant new information that has been generated in recent years with modern research techniques. Visit the four principal surviving elements of the Marietta works, beginning at Mound Cemetery and driving to Capitolium, Quadranaou, and Sacra Via.

Harmar Heritage Walking Experience
Harmar Heritage Walking Experience
Be treated to a guided exploration of two significant Marietta sites, the former site of Fort Harmar and the Henry Fearing House.
Built in 1785, Fort Harmar was an early United States frontier military fort, built in pentagonal shape at the confluence of the Ohio and Muskingum rivers. Before the settlement of the early Marietta pioneers, the fort served to evict squatters. Less than 3 years later, it became a place where treaties were negotiated and signed with native tribes and also served as a home for soldiers who took part in other important events influencing the settlement of the Northwest Territory.
Built in 1847, the Henry Fearing home exemplifies the lifestyle of middle-class Marietta during the Victorian Era. Henry Fearing was the first lawyer of the Northwest territory. Come visit his original home, maintained by the Washington County Historical Society, to see how early settlers once lived.

Prabhupada’s Palace of Gold Exploration
Prabhupada’s Palace of Gold Exploration
Srila Prabhupada was a spiritual leader of the 20th century who translated over sixty volumes of classic Hindu scriptures into the English language. In 1973, devotees decided to build a home for him, where he could write his books and enjoy the clean country air. The plan was a rough sketch drawn on a scrap of paper. No expert architect or experienced artisans were involved, yet somehow at each step the trial-and-error construction produced something grander than the devotees had imagined. Bit by bit, cemented, chiseled, and forged, with loving labor Prabhupada’s Palace of Gold emerged. Enjoy a guided exploration of the Hindu palace with additional time to explore on your own.
