Add to your holiday celebrations with private tours of two historic houses - Strawberry and Woodford mansions - all decked out for the season!
Historic Strawberry Mansion is the largest of the Fairmount Park Historic Houses. Handcrafted and manufactured ornaments and decorations adorn the mansion for the holidays. This 1789 mansion represents two prominent styles of American architecture, and is filled with antiques, fine art, and collectible treasures that tell the story of some of Philadelphia's most distinguished residents over a period of two centuries. It is also home to the Sesquicentennial Doll Collection representing antique dolls from across the United States.
And next we head to nearby Woodford Mansion built in 1756 by William Coleman, a Philadelphia merchant and trusted confidant to Benjamin Franklin. This elegant country home is one of the few remaining examples of the early "summer retreats" that were built along the Schuylkill River during the 1700s and 1800s by affluent colonial Americans. Since 1927, Naomi Wood's unique collection of colonial objects has been displayed at Woodford.
