Cecil County Curatorship Opportunity

All those interested in becoming curators of the historic Old Bohemia Tennant House in Cecil County are invited to join the Maryland Department of Natural Resources for an open house.  Come tour the house and grounds between 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 7 and learn more abut this historic property and Maryland’s Curatorship Program.

The Old Bohemia Tennant House is available for restoration under the Department’s Resident-Curatorship Program, which matches up historic properties with people interested in restoring, maintaining and periodically sharing them with the public in return for the right to lifetime tenancy.

The Old Bohemia Tenant House, located north-west of Warwick in Cecil County, is one of the last remaining examples of the farmhouses constructed to work the land owned by the Roman Catholic Clergy. Constructed ca. 1840, the house is made up of a 2-1/2 story main block with an attached 1-1/2 story kitchen wing.

The open house will take place at 300 Church Road; Warwick, MD. The Old Bohemia Tennant House property will only be available to the public by appointment or during open houses.
