Along with an array of delicious restaurants and places for scenic adventures, Bucks County also offers several fun and unique museums, writes Kai Lincke and JD Mullane for the Bucks County Courier Times.
The VAMPA Vampire & Paranormal Museum in Doylestown is a spooky spot open from 10 AM to 5 PM Thursdays through Sundays. The museum displays a variety of artifacts, antiques and art related to vampires collected by curator and owner Edmondo Crimi.
Since 2023, VAMPA has been “dedicated to exploring the intersection of the supernatural, folklore, myth, and faith through the ages as expressed through art.”
Doylestown’s Moravian Pottery and Tile Works is another great museum to check out. Visitors can learn about the history of tile making and watch artisans craft tiles.
Tours are available Tuesdays through Sundays from 10 AM to 4 PM. Those visiting can also check out the Mercer Museum and Fonthill Castle next door.
The Byers’ Choice Christmas Museum in Chalfont tells the story of the company behind the famous caroling figures. The museum is open from 10 AM to 5 PM Tuesdays through Saturdays and 12 PM to 5 PM on Sundays.
Doylestown’s Oscar Hammerstein Museum and Theatre Education Center is the perfect spot for theater fans. Former home to the legendary lyricist and creator of musicals like “The Sound of Music” and “Oklahoma!”, this museum offers scheduled and private tours.
