Abstract:
Despite the outstanding culinary reputation of Moravian settlements, until recently, the restored Old Salem was devoid of examples of period foods and cooking techniques. With the opening of the restored 1800 Winkler Bakery, visitors to the area can once again enjoy Moravian specialties such as spicy sugar cakes and round, crusty, loaves of bread, hot out of a wood-fired oven. Additionally, the opening of the Salem Tavern Dining Rooms in a restored 1816 home now allows visitors to dine on authentic Moravian foods in the homelike atmosphere of the early 19th century.

Abstract:
Old Salem, settled in 1772 by Moravians, has had its history well preserved due to members compiling detailed daily life accounts. Because of this, the task taken on in the 1950s to preserve Salem and turn it into to Old Salem was possible. Currently, Old Salem reflects historical integrity in its 107 historic buildings and individuals who realistically reenact daily life, evident in the accompanied photographs. An example of a conscientiously preserved historic building is the tavern George Washington lodged in during his visit in 1791, looking much as it did during his visit.
