About this event
Parks-Bentley Place, a National Register house in South Glens Falls, brings visitors back as far as 1776, when the original structure was built. Tours include both the first part of the house and the Georgian-style addition, our 1812 one-room schoolhouse, and the summer kitchen. You can even see the space that we believe hid slaves on the Underground Railroad! Saturday afternoon tours from noon to 4 pm, are free, although donations are always appreciated.
