Item Description
Travel back through time with a private Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse tour and historical walk through Patriots Park. Start your history lesson with a private 2 hour tour for up to 6 people of the iconic Sleepy Hollow Lighthouse led by Village Historian Henry Steiner. Experience sweeping views of the Hudson as you learn about this 1883 Historical Treasure and have a chance to ring the massive fog bell.
Continue your tour through Patriots Park where you will learn about historic battles and the 1780 capture of British spy Major Andre, that helped shape our region and country's backbone. Explore folklore of the park that led Ichabod Crane to take that fateful horseback ride north towards the cemetery...legend has it, it's the exact location where he was chased by the Headless Horseman only to meet his demise a few yards away!
Henry Steiner is a wealth of knowledge on Sleepy Hollow and Tarrytown history. This experience is a treasure for anyone looking to know more about the history and foundation of our villages. To learn more, please visit www.headlesshorsemanblog.com.
