Fall is time to fire the bricks! Stop by and see how up to 20,000 hand-molded bricks are fired at over 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Chat with the brickmakers as they work round the clock for five days to keep the kiln fires burning.
Parking near the Historic Area is recommended in the evenings. If you plan to park at the Colonial Williamsburg Visitor Center, please check the bus schedule.
