Central Park

  • 5m
  • Termasuk tiket masuk
Originally a DuPont family estate, Central Park is one of 17 parks in Louisville designed by the renowned Frederick Law Olmsted firm. As the tour strolls the path towards St. James Court, you’ll be taken back in time to the 1880s, when the property served as the carnival grounds for the Southern Exposition. This spectacular event was the largest display of electric light ever seen at the time, and led to the creation of Louisville’s first suburban neighborhoods.

Saint James Court

  • 10m
Designed in the 1890s as an exclusive suburb for Louisville’s wealthy elite, St. James Court is the eclectic centerpiece of Historic Old Louisville. Along the way, you’ll admire the stunning Richardsonian Romanesque ‘castle’ of Theophilus Conrad, see Venus rising from the sea in the iconic St. James Court fountain, and learn the colorful history of the ‘Pink Palace’ which overlooks the court.

Belgravia Court

  • 15m
After strolling stately St. James, the tour heads into the pedestrian-only neighborhood of Belgravia Court. Lit by flickering gas lamps and often described as ‘enchanting’ by visitors, Belgravia Court features a dazzling array of homes designed to suit the fanciful tastes of the 1890s, whimsically modified by the residents who saved the neighborhood from destruction in the 20th century.

4th Street

  • 15m
Belgravia Court leads to 4th street, where you’ll marvel at an ensemble of five elaborate mansions built for a Victorian jeweler, see the spot where President Chester Arthur opened the Southern Exposition in 1893, and learn the history of the immaculately restored “Mayor’s Mansion” on the corner of 4th and Magnolia, which boasts a special connection to Muhammad Ali.

3rd Street

  • 30m
From 4th street, the tour proceeds up Magnolia Avenue to 3rd street, which was known as the “Millionaire’s Row” of Victorian Louisville. Renowned for its ornate displays of Gilded Age opulence, the enormous mansions of 3rd street were designed to astound and impress. As you stroll along the spacious boulevard beneath the shade of a historic urban canopy, delighting in the eye-catching details, you’ll quickly understand why Louisville was deemed a ‘city of beautiful homes’ in the 19th century.

Central Park

  • 10m
The tour concludes with a final stroll down 4th street, where you’ll pass a number of Old Louisville’s most elegant bed and breakfasts, including the Louisville Bourbon Inn; This 8,8000 square foot mansion has been voted the best bed and breakfast in America onTripadvisor for two years in a row. As the tour concludes in Central Park, you’ll learn more about the Olmsted Firm’s work in Louisville. After the tour, the Visitors Center makes the perfect place to plan the rest of your day in Louisville.
