Reviews
"Always pleasant staff, interesting exhibits, quality gifts and books. This interesting Moravian site is well worth a visit."
"This place was absolutely amazing. I'd never heard of it but came to see Laurence Juber play. Tickets were pretty cheap. After the show they had snacks and drinks and we were able to browse the exhibits. I'd gladly visit the museum again but will certainly keep an eye on the shows. LJ was an absolute treat for how intimate the show was."
"An early look into the beginnings of The Moravians in The Town of Nazareth, PA! The Whitefield House constructed in 1740 is a standing testament to the faithful origin of an organized & unified people! I enjoyed the lively narrative of the guided tour I only paid $6 to hear & see!"
"The Moravian Historical Society is a beautiful and informative institution in the Whitefield House in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. The society is dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich history and culture of the Moravians, a Protestant Christian denomination that originated in the Czech Republic. The society features a variety of exhibits on Moravian history, including paintings, documents, and musical instruments. Visitors can learn about the Moravians' early settlement in America, their contributions to culture and education, and their role in the abolition movement. The society also offers a variety of educational programs and events for all ages. The Moravian Historical Society is a great place to learn about the history of the Moravians and their impact on early America. The museum is well-maintained and staffed by knowledgeable and friendly guides. I highly recommend visiting the Moravian Historical Society for anyone interested in history, culture, or the Moravians."
"Interesting museum especially if interested in musical instruments and area history. Guides were very friendly and informative."
