tiffin historic trust grammes-brown house

The Tiffin Historic Trust offers Victorian theme teas throughout the summer and fall, this was their last one for the regular season. I purchased tickets for my sister as a gift. The Haunted tea had a Halloween theme since it was offered in October! Food was wonderful, great variety! Took a tour of the historical Victorian home (Grammes-Brown) afterwards, delightful. Everything in the house is as it was so very authentic!

My wife and I enjoyed a tour of this fine old Victorian-era house, which possesses great charm and feels like the home it once was. The guides made us welcome and were eager to explain various details of the house and history. Many exhibits, furnishings, photos and paintings dating from first occupancy up to the time the last member of the family, Rosina M. Brown passed away in 1988 are on display. She was quite a traveler! We were fortunate to visit when a living tableau act took place showing the correspondence between Rosina and her German boyfriend living in Nazi Germany. The house is handicapped accessible apart from the upper floor. For those who like dolls, a museum dedicated to these shares part of the house.
