Your Guide: Nathanael Greene Homestead Tours

Tours of the Homestead are offered Friday through Monday until Halloween.

Want to know more about Coventry's history? Take a tour of one of the town's most notable historical landmarks, the Nathanael Greene Homestead, officially known as Spell Hall.

The homestead is located at 50 Taft Street, just a minute's drive from the Maj. Gen. Nathanael Greene Memorial Bridge, formerly the Laurel Avenue Bridge. It is maintained by the N.G. Homestead Association, whose members purchased the residence on June 30, 1919 and have operated it as a museum for the past 89 years.

Take a tour to learn all about Revolutionary War General Nathanael Greene who lived in the home from 1770, the year he built it, to 1776.
