Henricus Historical Park - History museum in Chester - 251 Henricus Park Rd, USA

This is a great wedding venue. Beautiful views with dappled lighting through the trees throughout the park. I have rated it s 4 because it could have been better maintained. The place is very private and carries with it loads of history. Nice for a short day trip also!

Excellent tour! You can hear the story of the fort told by individuals that have taken the time to research about this historic site. The historians are dressed for the part and they take you back in time as you walk around the fort. The replicas are amazing and they still have live animals on the site. If you are a history buff, I highly recommend.

I went in early February, but it was still some very pretty scenery with a nice maintained trail. There are a lot of docks that go out on the water with benches for sitting. I'm not sure if camping is allowed, but there are plenty of good places for it. There are several benchs and gazebos along the trail for resting/eating. The total trail loop is about 5 miles long. Overall, I was very impressed and plan to visit again when everything turns green.

The park has Several miles of gravel walking trails through woods that bring u to scenic view points around parts of the river , ponds and marshes. There are benches and pavilions along the trails. the park also has exhibits and interesting educational reads about the engineering to reroute the river

I have been going here since before it was a park. The only reason I give 4 stars is the admission price. $12 per person is a little steep to see the houses.

Amazing place! The interpreters were fantastic. They spent as much time as they were able having discussions with my cousins and me. They are so knowledgeable and we learned so much. The gift shop lady was very helpful also. Good job to all!

This place was beautiful and the historians are really personable and nice. Everything is very detailed. I brought my dog and they were very nice to her. Fun for everyone and all ages.

We really enjoyed walking through the 1600s buildings and learning about the early history from a period dressed host. There was a different historically dressed host at each stop. It was nice to see what the actual town and buildings would have looked like during this time period. Excellent walk down history.
