Nestled in a pecan grove on Mississippi soil, Thomas Landrum and his family built a village. They believed future generations would benefit from seeing how their ancestors lived. Board by board…and nail by nail, they built a replica of a late 1800’s settlement. Neighbors became curious…and wanted their families to see the village, too. In response to their interest, Thomas Landrum and his family opened the village to the public.



Today Landrum’s Homestead & Village, located in Laurel, Mississippi, is a destination for people across the United States who want to take a step back in time. The Landrum family invites you to come take a walking tour of the past!
