If you haven’t checked out the Ropes Mansion, it’s a gorgeous must see. The gardens out back are stunning and not to mention, it was a filming location in the movie Hocus Pocus!Β Going through October 29th you can do a self-guided tour of the mansion from 12-4 on Saturdays and Sundays. This is free to do and a fun way to check out some of historic Salem’s finest.
Per the Peabody Essex Museum’s website:
“Every Saturday and Sunday through fall. Just a 10-minute walk from the museum, the Georgian Colonial was built around 1727 and was home to four generations of the Ropes family. It is recognized as one of New England’s most significant and thoroughly documented historic houses and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Filled with original furnishings, the Ropes Mansion contains superb examples of 18th- and 19th-century furniture, ceramics and glass, silver, kitchenwares, textiles and personal objects.”
