“…in this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” — Benjamin Franklin, 1789
Benjamin Franklin was more than just a Founding Father—he was a tinker, printer, swimmer, and even a spy. But in the end, even he couldn’t escape life’s two certainties: death and taxes.
Join us at Christ Church Burial Ground for a captivating tour exploring Franklin’s legacy through the graves of his family, his rivals, and his fellow revolutionaries. Along the way, we’ll share fascinating stories, little-known facts, and his most memorable sayings, offering a deeper look at the man behind the legend.
