About A Candlelit Christmas at the Old Manse

Step back in time and embark on a candlelit journey through a colonial home, thoughtfully decorated for the holiday season! Learn about the historical figures who lived, worked, and visited the Old Manse throughout the decades, and also get a glimpse in how their holiday celebrations evolved.

Space is limited and advanced registration is recommended. Upon arrival, please check in at the bookstore. It is recommended to arrive 10-15 before your tour starts. Lanterns will be provided.

The historic house has several flights of steep stairs and is not wheelchair accessible.

Please plan accordingly. Parking is available in front of the museum in The Old Manse parking lot.
