Meridian Historical Village
March 19th, 2011 by insideout
Just 30 minutes northeast of our luxury Lansing MI Bed and Breakfast is the Meridian Historical Village. A handful of buildings from the 19th century were moved to this picturesque site overlooking Lake Catherine, and then restored; the result is a charming historic village.
Many of these buildings were slated for destruction – moving them to their new home in Okemos allowed them to be saved and restored. The village includes a one-room school, a pioneer’s log cabin, a farmhouse, and an inn and tavern. The only building that is not historic is the Village Chapel, which is an exact replica of the 1870 church that originally stood in Okemos.
Guests of our Lansing MI Lodging may enjoy visiting Meridian Historical Village, which hosts a number of special events such throughout the year. The village is open May through October on Saturdays, and for special events. See Meridian Historical Village or call 517-347-7300 for additional information.
