That said, an enriching contributor to Erie's history! Spend a lovely rainy afternoon there!
My family and I have been visiting this historic mansion for years at Christmas time - when it is always so beautifully decorated for the holiday - but this is the first time we went during the summer. Two great exhibits - a World War I I one in the carriage house and a Civil War one in the mansion - were featured. We really enjoy this museum.
The mansion itself is a marvel of craftmanship, the history is amazing and the staff is well-informed, passionate, funny and gracious. My 8 year-old daughter and I had a wonderful time.
Beautiful and full of history!! Fascinating! Could use a bit more attention from the docents explaining the history of the structure, tiles, appliances, families/occupants, and neighborhood to visitors as it is just gorgeous!
We had our daughter's wedding reception at the Watson-Curtze Mansion. This place is a winner. (Keep in mind, as a former wedding photographer, I've been to every venue.) Besides being able to roam the museum, guests stroll the grounds, dance under the stars, dine under tents (optional). If you want something idyllic, magical, and so different than a banquet hall, consider Watson-Curtze.
Always wonderful to visit and see some stunning interiors of days long past in such pristine condition.
A negative: Some staff were quite unwelcoming and rude to respectful children- even kids who clearly frequent museums and behave appropriately. We wouldn't recommend this stop for children under 10 at all.
