Museum Field Trips for School Groups

Our museum field trips are an excellent choice with room to roam, friendly staff, lots of farm animals, and interactive options like workshops. Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum is the perfect location for a museum field trip!

Taking your class on a museum field trip is an excellent way to bring history to life! Spark curiosity and excitement in our 1890s-style one-room schoolhouse, where students can engage with subjects such as arithmetic, spelling, and reading. Explore the work of archaeologists, investigate their findings, and much more! We offer a variety of museum field trips, ensuring there’s something for every age group and class.

Immerse your class in history with our engaging museum field trips! Our historical site is kid-friendly and offers something for everyone.
