Victorian Christmas at The Octagon House

Celebrate the holiday season in Victorian splendor at The Octagon House! All rooms in the house will be decorated with wreaths, garlands, and the sparkle of ornaments on three grand Christmas trees. The experience is sure to conjure a feeling of warmth and togetherness!

While exploring the colorful history of this one-of-a-kind home, visitors will see stunning examples of antique holiday décor and learn about the ways the decades of the late 19th century shaped our modern American holiday traditions.

Our tours are conducted by highly trained docents and include both the exterior and interior of the home.

Tickets are required for all guests, including those under the age of 18. This experience is best suited for ages 12 and up - babies and toddlers (although delightful) are not appropriate to bring along for the tour.

Free parking is available on site, along our driveway or in the circle in front of The Octagon House, but it is limited. Please do not park on West Clinton Avenue.

Please note: The tour is not recommended for individuals who will have difficulty walking up and down three flights of stairs or those who cannot stand for extended periods of time.
