About this event
Savor the sights, sounds, and smells of a Pennsylvania German Christmas as you travel back in time on candlelight tours of the Muhlenberg House and the Speaker’s House, where interpreters in authentic period clothing will share stories from the Muhlenberg family in each room. At the Muhlenberg House, chat with Pastor Muhlenberg in his office about the hardships the family faced during the winter of 1776. At the Speaker’s House, explore the newly restored house decorated in splendid style for the holidays. Warm yourself by the kitchen fire and see what treats our hearth cook is preparing. At the Dewees Tavern, the galleries are decorated for Christmas with German Erzgebirge woodcarvings, a towering Moravian Christmas pyramid, antique Noah’s arks, and much more.
Don’t miss the festive Weihnachtsmarkt–a German Christmas Market–that will also be open behind the Muhlenberg House from 10 am to 9 pm. Kids can also make seasonal crafts in the Visitor Center from 10 am to 2 pm on Saturday and 12 to 2 pm on Sunday.
