The Freedom Walk trail in Galveston retraces the footsteps of Major General Gordon Granger and the 2000 federal soldiers who arrived in Galveston on June 19, 1865, to announce that those enslaved were free. This day would become, what we now know as, Juneteenth. If you would like to walk the Freedom Trail, there is an app for that! Download it at Visit.Galevston.com
