Guided Historic House Tours
Not only is The Octagon House a National Historic Landmark and the only known fully-domed octagonal house in the world, it's also fully air-conditioned! Come in out of the heat for one of three exciting guided tours. Tickets are $29/person and advanced purchase is required.
11:30 am - The Preservation Tour: Nothing is Impossible tells the in-depth story of the restoration of The Armour-Stiner Octagon House. Learn the puzzle-like process of bringing the house back to its 1870s appearance from the brink of collapse.
1 pm and 4 pm - The Classic Tour: Inside The Octagon House is perfect for first time visitors or those returning to see The Octagon House again. Including both the exterior and interior of the home, this tour provides a foundational understanding of this iconic house.
2:30 pm - The Decorative Arts Tour takes a special look at the Victorian furniture and fixtures of The Octagon House. These 19th century objects were designed to impress and amuse, with richly detailed imagery of octagons, elk, centurions, and more!
PLEASE NOTE
The Octagon House is a privately owned home and active residence. All visitors to the property must purchase tickets and tour with a guide. Tours are recommended for ages 7+ and include three flights of stairs, and are therefore not suitable for wheelchair users, those with limited mobility, or those who struggle to stand for extended periods of time.
