A Victorian Christmas at the Historic Nissen House 2025

Join us for a festive celebration at 213 Arrow Leaf Dr! Get into the holiday spirit just as the Nissen family did in the 1870s.

Create lasting memories with your family by singing along with 'Victorian Voices', decorating the parlor, hearing a classic Christmas tale, and making cookie ornaments.

Enjoy the Christmas traditions of the Victorian era. This in-person event is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season and introduce yourself to the Historic Nissen House. Don't miss out on the fun!

Info: Come a little early so you can enjoy the carols of the season with 'Victorian Voices.' Make sure you warm up your voices so you can sing along!

Info: Listen to a popular story in the 1800s, "A Visit from St. Nicholas" by By Clement Clarke Moore. If you listen carefully, you may recognize this story!

Info: Join us in making decorations for the Nissen tree. You can make ornaments, trim the tree or string a lovely garland just like little Mary Estella and Bob Nissen would have in 1876.

Info: Learn to use a springerle roller! Make beautiful dough ornaments using a rolling pin.

Info: Enjoy warm cider, some yummy traditional Christmas Treats and community.
