Description
Join a Pullman National Historical Park ranger for a graveside talk to learn more about the legend of George Pullman’s grave!
For decades, rumors have whispered that Pullman was buried under tons of steel and concrete to avoid having his body stolen by angry laborers.
Nothing in Pullman’s own words requesting a reinforced burial has been found to date. We’ve been digging deep to get to the bottom of what lies beneath…come learn what we’ve discovered!
