Knickerbocker Mansion is considered the most significant historic building in Upper Rensselaer County, located in the Hoosic River Valley near Tomhannock Creek.  Built by Johannes and Elizabeth Knickerbocker in the 1780s, the Mansion's architecture is of a rare Medieval style.  Come to this spot steeped in history, where the Knickerbockers lived  since the early 1700s and where the Witanagamot Oak Tree was planted in 1676 signaling peace between the Indians, the  European settlers and New York Province's  Governor Andros.

Thank you for  considering Knick-at-Night for your October Souper Supper and historic entertainment.
