Forest Park, Walking Tour

May 13 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm EDT

Carriage House at the Barney Estate in Forest Park

In celebration of the 140th Anniversary of Springfield Park Department, join us for the Second Saturday Walking Tour of The Carriage House at the Barney Estate in Forest Park. Guests will learn the fascinating history behind the carriage house, built during the Victorian era. Once an integral part of the vast estate of inventor and philanthropist Everett Hosmer Barney, the carriage house is one of the only original structures still standing on the grounds. The Carriage House was built in 1890 and has been lovingly restored and reinvented. Its timeless charm and beauty is something to behold.  Tour begins at Carriage House at The Barney Estate, Laurel Hill Rd, Springfield, MA 01108.
