AUGUST SMELTER TOUR

Next Tour:
August 17th, 2013 
10 AM to 3 PM

Cost: $5/person.  
Children under 10 free
AAA discount available to members

Our tours start on the hour.  You will have a guide for each tour to explain what happened in each building and how copper ingots were made.

This is a former industrial site.  We recommend you wear shoes, not open sandals. 

We hope to see you at the only intact copper smelter in the country.  This facility is a tribute to America's industrial might in the early 20th century when copper was king in the Keweenaw.

Quincy Smelter Association is a private, non-profit organization.  The Quincy Smelter is owned by Franklin Township.  The township has given the QSA permission to conduct tours.  QSA has no affiliation with any governmental organization.

Quincy Smelter Association can conduct tours for private groups provided we have sufficient notice and volunteers available.

Our website, Save Quincy Smelter.Org, is temporarily unavailable.   We are working to restore it in the near future.
