Shippen Manor: Tours & On the Daily

Museum Tours (1-4pm, last tour starts at 3:30 pm)

The museum will be open for tours of the main floor, only.

Entrance(s) are along the boardwalk.

  • Main entrance has one step up and is closer to Belvidere Ave.
  • Our ADA entrance (no steps) is the last door on the boardwalk. Please knock on the door and our greeter will let you inside. 

Parking on site is limited. If all spaces are filled, please park in town and walk over to the museum.

Our Friends of Shippen accept donations from visitors at the end of the tours. All monies are used for the museum.

This is our last regular museum day of the season. In December are the Victorian Candlelight Holiday Tours.
