True Confessions Gangster Tour
Sr. Celeste has been in Heaven for over a century but she graciously returns to tell the tales that both enlighten and put the fear of God in her listeners!
In the Middle Ages, people learned about Good and Evil by watching Morality Plays. During Prohibition people in St. Paul people learned about Good and Evil by watching a handful of corrupt officials do business with a parade of convicted felons they invited to “layover for a little while”.
A tour that explores the lesser-known chapter of the city’s history when America’s Most Wanted lived and died on the streets of St. Paul.
Notable sites include Mickey's Diner, the Hamm’s Building, the Green Lantern, the Palace Theatre, and more.
These are stories not easily offered up in any confessional!
