Craftsmanship Tour of Glencairn Museum

2 hours
We'll take the Craftsmanship tour at Glencairn Museum at 115pm. $15 per adult and $12 for seniors/students according to Glencairn Museum. Museum members and children 4 and under can enter for free. Reservations are required.

Glencairn Castle, now an antiquities museum, is one of the most incredible places to visit in the Philadelphia area. No expense was spared when it was built in the 1920's and 30's. This is a world class structure. The museum makes The Cloisters in NYC look second rate. If it's not too hot we'll walk the grounds after the tour.

Glencairn Castle is one of the 100 largest houses in the country. #73 on the Wikipedia list. It's the former home of Pitcairn family. In 1979 after the death of Margaret Pitcairn the castle became an antiquities museum.
