Yuletide in the Country (1876) . . . . . Return to "Other Neat Stuff" or "Walking"

A Centennial Holiday Candlelight Tour
at the Genesee Country Village in Mumford, New York

Guides lead you by candlelight as you step into December, 1876. Re-created from the rich pages of America's past, this candlelight tour is staged in the historic buildings on the grounds of the museum, and immerses you in the ebb and flow of life in a country village. Holiday shoppers gather at the general store; elegant partygoers prepare for a festive reception; children breathily await the arrival of St. Nicholas. Tours last approximately one and one-half hours.

Volunteers are needed to plan a visit this year.
