Walking tours of “America's Grandest Victorian Neighborhood” year-round 7 days a week! As featured in the HBO Original Murder in Glitterball City!

The New York Times recommends our tours as a MUST during a visitor's “36 Hours in Louisville.”

Our tours include more than St. James Court, unlike other local organizations that have copied us. We visit Ormsby Avenue, Central Park, hidden Floral Terrace, the Witches' Tree, and Millionaires Row, where Bourbon barons, racetrack royalty, and titans of tobacco settled in the 1800s. Today, impressive Victorian mansions and quirky residents have earned national attention for Old Louisville.

Our narrated walks depart from the transitional edge of the neighborhood. If you love old houses, this is the tour for you! If you can't go 2 hours without a bathroom, this tour is not for you! If you do not like an up-and-coming, diverse neighborhood, please stay home.

Private and group tours available as well.

Old Louisville

With more than a thousand structures spread out over 40 square blocks, Old Louisville is one of the largest historic districts in the United States. This is a transitional neighborhood and you should expect to encounter things you would in any larger city. Panhandlers and homeless people, for example, are often found along Fourth Street at the north edge of the neighborhood. This is a walking tour and we do not enter any structures, as most of the houses in Old Louisville are private residences. We do stop in front of the Conrad-Caldwell House Museum, and you can arrange with them to tour the mansion for a fee.

Floral Terrace

Let our friendly guide usher you into Floral Terrace, a hidden gem of a walking court that you probably wouldn't find on your own. This inviting oasis never fails to charm with its Arts and Crafts residences and greenery.

The Witches' Tree

A gnarled tree rose up on the spot where a tree cherished by local witches once stood. When the city chopped down the original tree, townsfolk incurred the wrath of the crones, who sent a tornado to destroy the city in revenge. Visitors often leave offerings on the twisted trunk to make amends.

Central Park

Just like its famous cousin in New York City, Louisville's Central Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. With 14 acres of native tree species and shaded walkways, this four-square-block space counts as the green heart of the neighborhood. It's also where Shakespeare in the Park takes place each summer, since 1961, making it the nation's oldest free outdoor Shakespeare event.

Conrad-Caldwell House Museum (Conrad's Castle)

St. James Court Fountain

Enjoy the splashing water in the iconic fountain with the statue of Venus Rising from the Sea that has been the symbol of Old Louisville since the 1890s.

Belgravia Court

Enjoy a leisurely stroll among the gas lamps that illuminate this, the first of the Derby City's charming walking courts, 24 hours a day. Since 1891, Belgravia Court has been a favorite destination in Old Louisville.

Bernheim Mansion Bed and Breakfast (Sambil lalu)

At the heart of the old Millionaires Row, the Bernheim Mansion features green men arranged around a triple Roman-arched porch. This is just one of the features that sets this impressive Richardsonian Romanesque mansion apart.

The Filson Historical Society

5m
Tidak termasuk tiket masuk

Built in 1905, the Ferguson Mansion once counted as the grandest home in the city. A splendid example of Beaux Arts architecture, it today is headquarters for the Filson Historical Society. Visits can be arranged separately.
