Step back in time at Woodville Plantation as this living history museum presents a special event featuring military miniatures. On Sunday, February 15, 2015, military history enthusiasts are invited to see a display of military miniatures, hundreds of hand-painted toy soldiers and war-gaming dioramas featuring the 18th and 19th century armies of North America and Europe. Visitors can also talk with 18th century military re-enactors throughout the day as they drill (weather permitting). Woodville Plantation, the home of John and Presley Neville, is Western Pennsylvania's link to the late 18th century. Built in 1775, this living history museum interprets life during the period of 1780-1820, the Era of the New Republic. Guided tours of the house are available every Sunday from 1 to 4 pm. Just 7 miles and 15 minutes south of Pittsburgh, Woodville is conveniently located 1/4 mile north of Interstate 1-79 Exit 55 (Kirwin Heights Exit) on Route 50, near the intersection of Thoms Run Road in Collier Township.
