Castro District LGBTQ+ Historic Tour

The Castro District in San Francisco is known for its rich LGBTQ+ history and vibrant culture. It might be small, but it really packs a punch!

It was where Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official in North America, lived and owned a camera shop.

It is also home to many national landmarks, like one of the last historic movie palaces from the 1920's, The Castro Theater. And Queer Arts Featured, a gallery taking the culture of the neighborhood into a new era.

With your experienced, local guide you'll not only see the sights but learn the rich history of America's first 'gayborhood.'

Learn how local businesses, still standing today, helped solidify the Castro's place as a gay Mecca. Or the role the US military played in forming the neighborhood. Or why did they switch GLBT to LGBT? And what do the different colors of the rainbow flag represent?

Find out the answers to these questions and much, MUCH more on my Castro District Historic Walking Tour!
