Very informative look at the 1792 Johannes Mueller house, narrated by our guide Kristen. - Kristen walked us through the 1791 Johannes Muller house in Lititz PA. She was very knowledgeable and conveyed information in a brisk and complete way. There was no long winded explanations or monologues, just a cheery and totally natural description of the items found in the house, the operation of the house and the people in it and the history of how it came to be and the various updates as the centuries went by. Kristen made the house and its contents come alive, like we were in a movie as she shared what she could in the allotted time for the tour. The whole time was a total delight!

REALLY WORTH THE VISIT - The guided tour of this house inhabited by a Moravian family in the 18th century was captivating due to our guide’s knowledge, kindness and beautiful presentation. The small museum is extremely interesting since it contains artifacts from the past of this town. A beautiful and peaceful garden behind the house will complete your visit.

Don't miss this tour -- makes a tour trip to Lititz complete! - I've toured many historical homes and I'd say that the Johannes Mueller House is at the top of the list. The house is beautifully maintained and equipped with period household goods, furniture, clothing etc. -- a more diverse collection than I typically see. It also has a smoke or curing room in the attic, which is unique, and it's attached to a second home that served as a dyer's workshop with apprentice quarters. Kristen, our tour guide, was very well informed about the Mueller House as well as the history of Lititz. She was very engaged and friendly. Highly recommend this tour and kudos to the Lititz Historical Foundation for the safekeeping of the site.

Lovely day in Lititz at the Johannes Mueller house - Our tour guide Sheryl Lynn Williams was a gem. She was passionate and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the house and families who lived there , as well as the Moravian community. She gave us a completely wonderful lengthy tour with many interesting facts. Highly recommend this tour.
