tripadvisorExcellent trip, just enough to educate but not over whelming to visitors. Staff amazing to talk with. Take the tour of the old church. Took a friend from Seattle, she loved it.
MoreWe had a leisurely stroll amongst this old houses after the park had closed for the day. With the evening sun shining on the houses it made for a good photo opportunity.
MoreWe come every year for the re-enacting of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse. It occurs on the weekend closest to March 15, the day of the original battle. Battle, museum and primary displays are in the adjacent National Military Park, but some British troops bivouac here. They are fun to observe and always ready to talk history. Although the park service manages this park now, there isn’t much here - normally only a historic farm with working blacksmith, etc. I believe the museum is permanently closed with all exhibits moved to the park next door at the National Military Park.
MoreWe got here 1/2 hour before the gates would be closed. There is a note on the door explaining this location is closed for renovations. Directed us to another address for the visitor center. Since we did not have much time we did not go to the other location. Grounds are kept up well, your able to walk around, would love to come back when it's all up and renovated.
MoreTannenbaum Historic Park, adjacent to the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park, gives visitors the opportunity to learn about 18th century farm life. The park centers on the restored farmstead of Joseph Hoskins. During the hours leading up to the historic Revolutionary War battle, fought March 15, 1781, the farm served as a staging area for British troops. In addition to the house, kitchen, and barn, the site also includes the Colonial Heritage Center, with exhibits depicting life before, during, and after the battle and original paintings by noted military artist Dale Galleon. A museum store and picnic grounds are also located at the Park. Tannenbaum is about six miles northwest of downtown Greensboro, off Battleground Avenue. It is open Tuesday-Sunday.
