Most holiday tours sparkle with lights and nostalgia, but this one looks at the shadows behind them. The Dark Christmas Tour uncovers the city’s forgotten winter, where colonial faith, street riots, and literary invention shaped what Christmas would become. Led by Purefinder New York, it’s a 90-minute walk through Lower Manhattan’s hidden history, tracing how joy, conflict, and commerce gave rise to the modern holiday season.

Activity itinerary

A church founded in the spirit of Christmas but shadowed by division. Here, ideals of charity and equality met the uneasy realities of New York’s growing city.
