Old Swedes Historic Site, 606 N. Church St., Wilmington, is once again open to the public for tours with new health and safety precautions in place.
Tours are limited to four people and reservations are required. Tours are offered hourly from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays in March.
Guides and visitors will be safely distanced; stringent sanitation measures have been implemented; and masks are required at all times for every person on the site.
Old Swedes Historic Site, a unit of First State National Historical Park, includes the National Historic Landmark Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church circa 1699, Burial Ground circa 1638 and the early 18th century Swedish farmhouse Hendrickson House. Tracing the legacy of the Swedish colonists in what later became Wilmington, the site offers visitors a view of the history of Delaware and the surrounding area.
