Old Sturbridge Village Reviews

Had a fun day with Anna E Norris School on Nesiyah's field trip today!!

Sturbridge Village is truly a beautiful place and a great piece of history. All the staff are friendly and so knowledgeable.

Great ppace. Staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. A lot of places to visit and snacks along the way. Lots of parking great gift shops. Good for older kids.

Classroom field trips to Old Sturbridge Village have been a treasured memory of mine since as long as I can remember. Now as an adult with my own children, I have to say that I'm still just as impressed.

The visitor center has a children's playground offering interactive play with a traditional 1800's theme. Prices encourage family engagement with free admission to children under 4 and discounts for kids up to 17. At $28 per adult, it's not a trip that most could make very often but well worth the price considering the depth of the experience you are paying for.

Beyond the perfectly manicured visitors center lies a beautiful reproduction of 1800's New England life. Live actors play the roles of the various townsfolk and actively engage you as you explore the town freely and at your own pace.



After lunch, we spent the afternoon exploring the village. My wife and I learned a lot about early printing from the local printer (you wouldn't believe the time and effort it took to print a single book!) and watched as a young woman spun some thread and showed us how to use a loom. We perused the museums, watched live shows and explored the lives of our ancestors.

The whole experience was charming, engaging and educational. I can't wait to come back with our 2 year-old and begin our own family tradition at Old Sturbridge Village.

History comes alive, friendly workers,learned lot from demonstrations available.

Nice place for all ages. People not adhering to wearing masks appropriately however.

Amazing. Learning how our forefathers worked hard and survived!

Went there for baby shower food was good and place was as well enjoy

Great place for historical edutainment. Staff is great and it's well maintained.

Great place to spend the day with the family, good recreation of the 1800s village. Fully recommended!

Interesting place I recommend the visit that does not require a guide. Small admission discount for over 55, inside there is a restaurant (not tried).

Excellent food
Soo Satisfied!!!
