Now serving as the first Environmental Education Center in the state, the Nolde property was once the home of a wealthy Reading manufacturer. The mansion now serves as the park and staff offices and is not open to the public except on open house days. 

Join the Friends of Nolde Forest for a seasonal open house to explore the home left behind by the Nolde family. See the Nolde Mansion story in video, take a self-guided tour of the home, and watch home videos from the Nolde family. No registration required.

The seasonal open house is FREE, but a special docent-guided mansion tour will be offered on select dates. To purchase tour tickets, please visit the seperate events page for the tour you are interested in attending (all events will be posted on this calendar of events site as well as our facebook page). Ticket sales open 1 month prior to the tour date and are first come, first serve. Ticket sales are non-refundable.

Hosted by the Friends of Nolde Forest.
