The Grounds Tour At Glensheen Opens Back Up Today

The staff at Glensheen Mansion have had to make some major adjustments these last few months by closing down tours and overall access to the mansion due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But, they are happy to announce Phase 1 is starting today with the grounds of the mansion open to the public again.

Of course safety for visitors and staff is the top priority so their are some stipulations with the re-opening. " Grounds Passes and Member admission to the estate are only available through pre-purchasing or member redemption online. After pre-purchasing or redeeming online ahead of time, MEMBERS AND GUESTS MUST go to the Carriage House to check in."

By having members and guests purchase tickets ahead of time staff at Glensheen can keep control of how many people are on the grounds at one time . If you have not had the opportunity to tour the beautiful 7 acres of grounds, there is so much to see especially this time of year.

No worries about social distancing as their are plenty of spots you can go with an abundance of that fresh air and not to close of proximity to others.
