Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites — a National Historic Landmark District in the Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania — proudly preserves 20 historic sites in the heart of the city. We work to restore, educate, and learn all we can about these beautiful buildings and their storied pasts — including the first Moravian settlement from 1741.
The Moravian Museum, the Kemerer Museum of Decorative Arts, and the Visitor Center & Museum Store have regular open hours. Our other sites are primarily viewed on our tours. We are happy to arrange a custom tour for you at any time that includes any of our historic museums and sites.
