History buffs and curious locals in Mankato are in for a treat this May. In what's undoubtedly a nod to the city's storied past, the City of Mankato is offering free bus tours of its Heritage Preservation Landmarks. The narrated journey through time is set to welcome passengers on two distinct days, May 9 and 11, with opportunities to catch the sights in either the late afternoon or mid-morning, according to the City of Mankato, Minnesota Government.

Ready to soak in the architectural and historical marvels at no cost, enthusiasts can catch the bus outside the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center, with tours departing at practical times– 4 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, yes, and an earlier option for the weekend risers on Saturday at 10 a.m. Making this an affair to remember is the fact that seats are limited. With a call to 311 or 507-387-8600 by the end of May 6 at 4:30 p.m., history seekers can ensure they don't miss out, as detailed by the City of Mankato, Minnesota Government.
