This is a unique opportunity to see the Duke family home brought to life as it might have been in 1870 when the Dukes lived here! As the Dukes switched from growing to manufacturing bright leaf tobacco, they enjoyed the start of soaring wealth just a few short years after the hardships of war.Ĭome enjoy Christmas music, singing, holiday cookies, and a whole lot of history as costumed interpreters lead you on a candlelit tour through our historic area. Come to Duke Homestead for evening candlelight tours and celebrate an old-fashioned traditional Victorian Christmas with the Duke Family in 1870.
