Queen Victoria is dressed in her mourning attire and visiting Jean’s Restaurant, inviting everyone to Mourning at Merrehope during the month of October. She is Brainstorm Creative Group’s entry in the Illuminations Center for Dyslexia Scarecrow Competition.

“Mourning at Merrehope” comes alive the entire month of October with this most unique tour.

All month long you can experience the period of mourning set by Queen Victoria. This period began in 1861 after the loss of her husband Prince Albert and was embraced throughout Europe and the Americas as the proper way to mourn.

The second floor of Merrehope is staged as a family living in the home would have prepared it during a period of grief.

Hours: Tuesday - Saturday l 10AM to 3PM
Admission: $10 l $5 for Students
