SUMMARY:Tour of Historic Rittenhouse Town
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE REGISTRATIONS FOR THIS VISIT ARE CLOSED. Please text APT member Judy Smith with any questions or problems day of 609-670-4783.  \nThe Association of Philadelphia Tour Guides (APT) has arranged a visit to Historic Rittenhouse Town on Monday\, June 15 at 11 am. This will be a two-hour outing with a guided tour for $6. \nHistoric Rittenhouse Town\, located in Philadelphia’s Fairmount Park\, is an historic village featuring seven original buildings dating from the 18th and 19th centuries\, including the 1707 Rittenhouse Homestead and the 1753 Bake House. \nIn 1687\, papermaker William Rittenhouse purchased a plot of land by a tributary of the Wissahickon Creek and with his son\, Nicholas\, built the first paper mill in British North America. For 40 years the Rittenhouse family were the only papermakers in America! Eight generations of the Rittenhouse family lived and worked there for almost 200 years. At its peak in the mid-19th century\, Historic Rittenhouse Town was a self-contained industrial community comprised of about forty buildings which produced paper\, textiles\, and grain. \nToday Historic Rittenhouse Town is a designated National Historic Landmark District that is a museum and education center offering historic tours\, papermaking workshops\, hearth cooking\, demonstrations\, and more. \nScroll down to pay the $6 discounted registration fee. Deadline to sign up is Sunday\, June 14 at midnight. Contact APT Director-at-Large vpmccafferty@msn.com with any questions. Join us for an enlightening and fun day! \n  \nPhoto by Al Cassidy\, courtesy of Historic Rittenhouse Town.
