The mansion will be decorated and we will offer special Christmas-themed tours from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3, and Sunday, Dec. 4. Father Christmas will join us on Sunday afternoon so bring the family!
Many of our familiar Christmas decorations and traditions were started in Victorian times. How did they celebrate Christmas at Rose Hill? Christmas was also an important holiday for the enslaved people on the plantation. What were their traditions? In addition to the special house tour, visitors can partake of hot drinks and homemade goodies in the plantation kitchen. Warm your hands by the fire and craft your own decoration to take home with you!
