Downtown | Congress, Market & Pleasant

If it’s shopping you want—and a view of our iconic steeple, head downtown to Market Square. You don’t need to walk far to find a sweet place to eat, buy a dress, or purchase a local pint. And if walking is really your thing, then you’re in luck—walking tours leave our Market Square Kiosk twice a week. Join in the jaunt!

  • North Church
  • Walking Tour at Market Square kiosk, 1:00 Thursdays and Saturdays *Select Days in the summer*
  • Sit by fountain to relax and people watch
