Experience a New England holiday tradition at Mystic Seaport. Step back in time to Christmas Eve 1876 and meet the residents of the quaint village of Greenmanville. Both young and old will enjoy seasonal highlights that include a traditional tavern dance, a horse-drawn carriage ride, and just perhaps, a visit with old St. Nick himself! More details on this year's event are coming soon.
This moving performance/walking tour meanders through the Museum's 19th-century maritime village. The route covers approximately 1/2 mile of uneven terrain (including cobblestone, wood planking, grass, gravel, and stairs). Please wear appropriate shoes as you will walk or stand for the entire tour.
