Your day might start at the Yankee Village where you’ll visit a General Store, working blacksmith, stagecoach inn, shoemaker, 1839 Greek Revival Church and home, plus barns and more! Continue on to the African American site, the German / Polish area that boasts fabulous German architecture and finally the Scandinavian area.
