About Home to Two Revolutions: Tour of the Old Manse

Home to Two Revolutions – From the American Revolution of 1775 through the literary revolution of the mid-19th century, on this house tour we share the stories of Manse residents, both the famous and the lesser-known, who influenced and responded to the 19th century social, political and cultural changes that helped to define the American nation.

Weather permitting, tours will begin outdoors with an introduction and welcome prior to entering the house. Upon arrival, please check in at the bookstore.

Tours are on the hour with the last tour of the day beginning at 4PM. Space is limited and advanced registration is recommended.

Please note, there is no public restroom on site at the Old Manse and during the winter season the restrooms at the National Park are closed. Please plan accordingly.
