Fodor's Expert Review Worcester Museum

Worcester Family

Although it's looking a little worn around the edges, the Worcester Museum makes a welcome change from dusty artifacts in glass cases. It's a collection of original buildings from the area that have been re-erected around a working farmyard. Museum staffers bake bread, twist tobacco, make horseshoes in a smithy, and distill witblits (meaning moonshine).  There are witblits tastings, but keep in mind that some types have an alcohol content of almost 80%. The museum also has a shop where you can buy produce from the farmyard.
