Reviews
"A place with a lot of fun. Definitely love that movie—staff told us that they shot it during Covid 90% inside the Village!"
"What a great place to learn about American History! Our group went for the Independence Tour. We will be returning for the other tours that are offered."
"Enjoyed American Village on Memorial Day. Many events scheduled for all ages. Museums open. Enactors knowledgeable & informative about life of the soldier, the patriotism displayed by Americans throughout history, early American family life, chores, games & museums focused on founding fathers. Well worth a visit! opportunity of educational resources for students ample."
"Awesome history experience! I loved the reenactments and historic costumes. Lots of buildings to visit which take you to another time and place. My favorites were the Gathering Tree and the Oval Office. The grounds are beautiful and were a nice walk. There is a small fee, which Im sure supports the staff and upkeep. I wish i had arrived when they opened because we missed some of the reenactments. There are restrooms throughout the grounds."
"It was $5 per person to get in for the fireworks show. We showed up at about 6:30pm. It was so much fun seeing the fireworks show. My toddler loved seeing the fireworks. We enjoyed walking around the grounds before the show. We walked into the Veterans memorial building, it's very beautiful inside and a nice tribute for the men and women who have lost their lives for our country. It was fun seeing actors in their costumes in the village. There is a replica of the liberty bell and Independence Hall. For the 4th of July show they had food trucks which we purchased the lemonade and fire roasted corn on the cob. Most of the food trucks had QR codes you could use to make your purchases which was helpful as we don't usually carry cash. The gift shop is cute with some books, memorabilia and wooden toys. We purchased a wooden helicopter for our toddler for $6 which I thought was a great price for the size of the toy. We would love to go in the fall and see the sights and learn about the 1700s and not have the crowds."
