Special Tours at the Moravian Historical Society
Moravians & Music
Life in Moravian settlements during the eighteenth century was musically rich and became renowned throughout the country. Moravian composers wrote thousands of vocal works, imported compositions and musical instruments, and, as visitors will see on this tour, they also created some of the first musical instruments of their kind made in America. Visitors will also learn how this love of music created a lasting legacy that continues today.
​
Tour offered monthly at 1:00 p.m. every second Wednesday and fourth Saturday.
Moravians & the Revolutionary War
Join us for a special in-depth guided tour. Moravians in Pennsylvania had a complicated role in the American Revolution. Through the objects in our permanent exhibition galleries, visitors on this tour will learn how the Revolutionary War put the Moravians’ desire for freedom from entanglements with the outside world to the test—and how it ultimately transformed Moravian communities.
