Lebanon, IL

Secret Gardens Tour in Lebanon, Illinois 2011

Historic and quaint Lebanon, Illinois was populated in 1814, incorporated as a town in 1857, and reorganized as a city in 1874. Lebanon retains its small town community feel through the efforts of its residents who are proud of this Victorian city. It is home to McKendree University founded in 1828, the oldest Methodist college in Illinois.

On Saturday, June 18 from 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM the Garden Club of Lebanon will sponsor a Tour of Eight Secret Gardens in Lebanon's beautiful European style gardens, espaliered fruit trees, landscapes, shade gardens, and visitors will learn about various vegetable gardening techniques.

The tour also includes visiting the Mermaid House Inn built around 1830. It was here that Charles Dickens and company stayed in April 1842. It was speculated that his novella, A Christmas Carol was inspired by his visit and stroll in Lebanon. This stage production is played every year in Lebanon's community theater, the Looking Glass Playhouse on St. Louis Street.

After the tour visitors may take advantage of the several eateries, antiques and curio shops on beautiful St. Louis Street, known as "The Brick Street."

Tickets available for sale at the Lebanon Visitors Center, $7 in advance, or $8 on the day of the tour.

The Secret Gardens Tour starts at the Visitors Center, 221 W St. Louis Street, Lebanon, IL. For more information, call 618-537-8420.
