#36 – Guided Historic Tour of Rhinebeck by Village Historian Mike Frazier, Rhinebeck, NY

Enjoy a tour of one of the jewels of Dutchess County, the Village of Rhinebeck. First settled in 1703, Rhinebeck has been a cultural hub in the county, not only for hosting some of history's most prominent figures including George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Aaron Burr, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but also for its outsized influence on local and national life since its humble beginnings. Walk with Village Historian Mike Frazier from the Starr Library to your first stop at Ambrose Wager's "French Villa" style mansion, built on a bluff over the village. You will then head down the hill, learning the charming history of Rhinebeck's transformation from a colonial outpost to the vibrant village we see today. The heart of the village is just steps away at the intersection of Market Street and Route 9 where the Beekman Arms Inn has stood proudly on the corner for over 250 years. Stand on its front step where FDR would give many of his election day speeches then head next door to see the library he helped design, both inside and out. Finish along South Street at one of the oldest churches in the Hudson Valley, the Dutch Reformed Church whose cemetery dates back to the mid 1700s. You'll leave this experience with a new appreciation for an already exceptional locale. The tour is about an hour long and for a group of up to 6 people. Approximately 1 mile in length. Date to be agreed upon between the tour guide and the group, on or before June 30, 2023. Value $200.
