Cliveden offers free house tours every second Saturday of the month, May to October, as part of their Second Saturdays programming.

House tours are available 12pm to 4pm, beginning on the hour in the Cliveden Barn, located at 98 E. Cliveden Street, 19119. The last tour of the day is at 3pm. Each tour is a one-hour experience. Visitors will view our current exhibit, The Turmoil of Transition: The mid-nineteenth century at Cliveden:

Enter Cliveden as it was in the mid-nineteenth century – a household in turmoil and mourning over the death of husband and father, Benjamin Chew, Jr. This exhibit explores mourning practices, household dynamics, substance abuse and violence, exacerbated by societal shifts of the mid-19th century and still relevant today.
