Reviews
"Unfortunately due to construction and restoration work going on around the district, specially museum and estate, we were not able to tour inside. But the outside walk was pleasant experience and we got to explore gorgeous architecture."
"No Coherent Ability to Book A Complete Tour of All Three Locations Such a shame. All 3 locations are right next to each other. While each has its own website they are also advertised as "the Bryn athyn historic" district whichever has its own website, not that anyone listed from that website will contact you"
"Absolutely breath taking area. I fell in love with the Bryn Athyn Cathedral the minute I saw it. Its beautiful. All the buildings around it are just as amazing. We walked around the property for a few hours in just amazement."
"This is how billionaires live. We used to ride our bikes through here as kids. Not all of the residents were very friendly. One even pointed a shotgun at us just for riding on Creek Road (a true story!)"
"Amazing cathedral. Was disappointed though that there was an event going on that day after driving 1/2 hour to get thete and couldn't tour the myseum,the cathedral or the house. Beautiful on the outside though."
