Candlelight House Tour

A December tradition to inspire you

Sunday, Dec. 14, 2008, 1-5 p.m.

Since its founding in 1973, Historic Harrisburg Association has conducted a tour of area homes and public buildings to usher in the holiday season with a real “Home for the Holidays” feeling. People volunteer to open their homes for the enjoyment of tour goers who come from throughout central Pennsylvania and beyond. This is a popular event with broad support from local businesses.

Over the years, many significant areas of Harrisburg and surrounding communities have been featured. From small pre-Civil War row houses to the mansions of Front Street, the Candlelight House Tour has allowed visitors to get a real sense of Harrisburg's architecture and social fabric — the very thing HHA strives to preserve. Many current residents of the City of Harrisburg decided to move to the city because of the insights they gained on an HHA Candlelight House Tour.

Our next tour will be Sunday, Dec. 14, 2008.
