Schedule your self-guided tour of Sloss Furnaces today!

Sloss Furnaces offers self-guided tours to the general public by appointment only. The time slots for a self-guided tour are 10am, 12pm, and 2pm Tuesday-Saturday, $5 per person. Our self-guided tours allow people the opportunity to explore the site on their own, while reading about how the furnaces worked and the story of the men who worked there. Our self-guided tour brochure explains the process while the informative signs throughout the site expand on the story by including science, history, and social themes associated with Sloss Furnaces.
