You may have heard of Pennhurst Asylum as a Hallow

You may have heard of Pennhurst Asylum as a Halloween attraction, but today we took a historical tour of this property. Pennhurst opened in 1908 due to public pressure to house mentally and physically handicapped individuals that were “undesirable” to society at the time. (Look up the ugly laws) Over time, the conditions at Pennhurst got increasingly worse due to major overcrowding and lack of funding. In the 60s, journalist Bill Baldini did a 5 part documentary on Pennhurst that woke up the public to these poor conditions. In 1987, Pennhurst officially closed its doors.

Our tour was nearly 3 hours and really opened our eyes to what went on here. We even got to meet and talk to two women that worked as nurses here in the 70s and 80s. Before visiting, we heard a lot of stories about what went on here, but it was really eye opening to get the perspective from people that actually experienced it. We highly recommend taking this tour!

Beth Shalom Synagogue was opened in 1959 and designed by world famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright. He was in his 80s when he began designing it and shortly after his death, it was recognized as one of his seventeen most important projects.

This building is located just outside of Philadelphia and they offer guided tours for $15 a person. Really informative and enjoyable. Well worth the visit, especially if you’re a lover of architecture.
