An interesting tour that takes through a historic farm and business that was supplied by slave labor... the tour takes you through the mill, the home, and craft, the barn and gardens. Photography isn't allowed in the house. Different guides dressed in period garments take you through each different area.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNoPrice for adult entry$11–15
Nicely restored. Beautiful place. The information from staff is definitely politically motivated. Whoever scripted the narrative definitely disregards a lot of other nationalities in our worldwide historical human trafficking. I guess just one more historical rewrite .
On a late summer evening, my family and I took a trip to Sleepy Hollow, NY, to visit the Philipsburg Manor. The place was peaceful and uncrowded, with several storytellers in character explaining the history of the manor, specifically the history of those who kept the dynamic production of goods alive and well– I'm talking about the enslaved. Enslaved men like Caesar, Diamond, and others are introduced in this grand narrative with admiration for the labor and commitment they manifested regardless of their forced subjugation by the Philipse family. From the Gristmill to the picturesque Home Garden, the story of the enslaved was told with precision and respect to their assigned trade. Overall, this is a great place to spend a few hours with the family.
We had a beautiful day to enter into the Year 1750. They had 23 slaves who worked on the farm. We learned about their jobs. It was a very educated tour. They have a gift shop. They welcome bus tours. It’s not for scooters and wheelchairs. The house and grist mill has steps to walk. Bathrooms are in the gift shop. The Manor is in the town of Sleepy Hollow.
Close by and visited various bldgs and there was also a festival w music. Very historical and educational.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitPrice for adult entry$11–15
I did enjoy the tour to the Philipsburg Manor for its story, beauty and friendly staff. This tour teaches the story of the manor around 1750 and the people that lived there. The tour was of 4 parts, the mill where the flour was done, the kitchen where the butter and meals were prepared, the barn where the wheat was processed and stored, and finally the oven where the dry bread was cooked and then sold for the army or the ships. Every part was given for a different person and each of them were so knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
Early American manor that doubles as the visitor center for Historic Hudson Valley sites. A nicely curated Gift Shop that includes homemade jam. Snack Bar with at least one vegan meal. There are restrooms on the lower level—no need to wait on the long line for the ladies room!
Currently closed but you are able to view from park entrance. Parking along side street is pretty dangerous because cars fly up the road so quickly. Curious to know more about manor its legend & dark history.
It was sadly closed today but I was able to walk on a small path to take in the beauty and landscape. I'll definitely be back for a proper tour.
Had fun walking through the woods at night. Though they couldn't touch you, it didn't stop them from other things...Some of the costumes were great and the sets didn't look too cheaply made.
