NC State has recognized 10 irreplaceable buildings, landscapes and natural settings on its Raleigh campus that have accrued significant meaning over time to students, faculty, staff and alumni. We call them Hallowed Places. Take a tour of the seven sites within walking distance of the Memorial Tower and learn about all 10 spots on this tour led by University Communications writer, editor and keeper of things historical about NC State, Tim Peeler (’87).

Along the way, we’ll talk about university folklore, icons and legends, as well as the hallowed history of the ground that lies between the tunnels and under the bricks of North Carolina’s largest university.

Please note this walking tour is not strenuous, but it will move quickly to stay within the allotted hour. It could be longer if the group is curious. Walking shoes are recommended.
