Explore the Statuary and Gardens at Linden Place with a Special Guided Tour

Posted by sbattle

On Saturday, May 25, 2019 at 11:00am, a special docent-led tour will be offered focusing on the statuary on the Linden Place Mansion grounds. Explore the grounds while you uncover the history behind the statues and the man that brought them to Bristol, Samuel Pomeroy Colt. Hear the stories of Polymny, the woman who graces the front lawn as well as the “rampant colts” placed throughout the lawns. As you tour the grounds, you will have the chance to appreiate the 200-year-old mansion from a different view.

Our docent, Phyllis Thibault, has conducted extensive research and complied information about the background of the many sculptures, the prior placement on Colt State Park and the meaning of each statue.

Admission is $10, free for Linden Place members. Reservations are required as this tour will sell out. For reservations, please call 401-253-0390 or email info@lindenplace.org. For more information please visit, www.lindenplace.org
