About this Event
Celebrate the holidays in St. Anne's Hill, with historic homes decorated inside and out, friendly neighbors sharing stories, quaint shops, and more! "A Dickens of a Christmas in St. Anne's Hill," the holiday historic home tour, will return Dec. 13-15, 2024.
The walking tours are led by guides costumed in period dress and feature visits to historic homes, beautifully decorated for the season. Tours begin every half hour, and last approximately 2.5-3 hours. Due to the popularity of the event, the schedule of tours sells out quickly and advance tickets are required.
The 2024 tour will begin at the High Street Gallery, located at 48 High St, home of the Dayton Society of Artists. The tour will conclude at the historic Bossler Mansion, complete with the popular wintergarden. This year, St. Anne's Hill Historic Society is celebrating its 50th anniversary, commemorating the evolution of the neighborhood since it became a registered historic district in 1974. It's promised to be a special event!
"A Dickens of a Christmas In St. Anne's Hill" is the Miami Valley's oldest continuously running historic home tour, having debuted in 1983. Proceeds from the tour benefit the St. Anne's Hill Neighborhood Association, to maintain the neighborhood's historic character.
