Historic Rosedale house and gardens are dedicated to sharing and preserving 19th Century heritage,
Historic Rosedale has been a part of Charlotte’s history since 1815. In those early days, it was three miles out of town. Today, it is an urban oasis that has survived the development around it. Located on about 9 acres, the restored historic house, recreated blacksmith shop, and verdant and blooming gardens provide visitors an opportunity to experience a look back at life in earlier times, as well as an invitation to explore the grounds and our big tree museum.
School Tours and Field Trips:
Historic Rosedale is happy to host your next field trip! Your class can explore topics and connections to local, state, and U.S. history. We offer a historic and natural setting for all ages to enjoy through the preservation and interpretation of material culture, architecture, and natural landscapes.
We are here to bring history to life outside of books, television, and the classroom! We are pleased to welcome group field trips year-round.
