Get ready to travel back in time! In honor of America’s 250th birthday, Burritt on the Mountain is turning history into hands-on fun for the whole family. Step into the Past Wander through real 19th-century houses that families lived in long ago! Each one has amazing stories waiting for you to discover.
May is Preservation Month, and there is no better time to take a closer look at the buildings that define Burritt’s Historic Park. Join us for special Architectural Tours that go beyond the surface to explore how these structures were built, how they were used, and why they matter today. From hand-hewn logs and original construction techniques to the stories of the people who lived and worked in these spaces, these tours offer a deeper understanding of everyday life in 19th-century North Alabama.
