Historic Germanna will once again open the gates to Historic Salubria on Oct. 18 for a special, after-hours Halloween event.
Join costumed interpreters as they lead guests through various mysterious tales weaved throughout Salubria’s history. Hear about farce and fable, truth and tale – all of which make up the storied fabric of Salubria.
Due to the nature of some of the stories, this event is recommended for children ages 12 and up.
Each tour will begin on the hour, with the first tour starting at 6pm and the last one starting at 9 p.m. The cost is $15 per person. Tickets are required, as space is limited.
Tickets will go on sale on Friday Sep. 20 at 10 a.m.
Historic Salubria, built in 1757 for Reverend John Thompson and Butler Brayne, widow of Alexander Spotswood, is an exemplary Georgian brick home crafted by free and enslaved artisans.
Preserved in its original state, Salubria offers a glimpse into 18th-century architecture and life. Donated by the Grayson family in 2000, Salubria now serves as a public history site, sharing local and national stories through tours, events and partnerships.
