How do I take the Trees of Historic Bethlehem tour?
Start at the Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts, then go to the Moravian Museum of Bethlehem. From there you will be able to visit the Single Sisters' House. Tours at these 3 sites are guided. Finish up at the 1810 Goundie House with the final Trees and some shopping!

Trees of Historic Bethlehem Hours
"My sister and I took the tour last Friday and it was absolutely delightful!! The Bethlehem Garden Club's use of portraits, paintings and artifacts as inspiration to decorate the trees was amazing and so artistically done! The restored historic museums are the perfect setting and the tour guides did a wonderful job explaining the history of the Moravian community. We thoroughly enjoyed it...This is a must-see!!"
