FIRST QUINCY SMELTER TOUR OF 2013


FIRST TOUR OF 2013

Our first tour of 2013 is June 22, 2013.  Tours will start on the hour at 10:00 AM with the last tour starting at 2:00 PM.


We look forward to showing you the buildings and machinery that were used to produce pure copper at the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The Quincy Smelter is the only intact historical copper smelter in the country. Its a rare opportunity to see a part of America's industrial heritage.

The Quincy Smelter Association can provide tours to groups or organizations depending on the availability of volunteer staff.
