Tinker Swiss Cottage is a hidden Gem in the middle of Rockford. The house is filled with Victorian era furnishings, artwork, clothing and everyday items that one wouldn’t normally see in one place. There is a long rich history of the house and the architecture is beautiful.
In order to enter the museum you need to have a guided tour. The guides are knowledgeable and will go into great detail regarding the history of the house and the family. Well worth the price of admission. Also, depending on what time of year you go depends on how the house is decorated. They will change the furnishings and the interior based on holidays as was the custom in the Victorian era.
They also hold various workshops, lectures and events throughout the year. You need to check their schedule to see what might piqué your interest. One of the events they do that we enjoyed was the Ghost Tour. The house is allegedly haunted and they will take people through at night and tell stories of things that have happened in the house. We had a lot of fun with it. If ghosts aren’t your thing, try holiday teas, Murder Mysteries, lectures and much more. There’s something for everyone.
Definitely worth the visit.

Who goes to Rockford, right? Like a lot of other smaller cities, Rockford may be one of those places you pass through.
Definitely make an hour-stop at this place if you happen to roadtrip by it. I know, Illinois has lots of Eastern European-inspired architecture, but this is definitely not to be missed.
The docent-guided tour is free, and showcases the style and lifestyle of the owner, and that of time past.
Also, curious about the origin of the sock monkey? The docent will share that information with you. No, it has nothing to do with the house.
