Historic Home Tours

Every year, selected homeowners in Albany’s historic residential districts open up their homes for a public tour. Complete with transportation by vintage trolley or horse-drawn wagon, the home tours are priceless way to get an up-close look at the lovingly-restored historic homes in Albany.

Summer Historic Interior Tour

The Summer Historic Interior Tour is customarily held the last Saturday in July, each year. Check the event calendar for current dates.

Along with the homes, guests will visit other notable historic buildings such as the Whitespires Church, Albany Regional Museum and the Monteith House Museum. This tour is self-guided.
