The tour takes place on Saturday and Sunday May 19 & 20, 2012 from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm. The cost is $12 per person for both days and free shuttles run between all the attractions. Purchase tickets at one of the houses during the event or by calling Diane Schultz at 563-556-5562.
Each year the group sponsors the Annual DubuqueFest Old House Tour to allow community members and visitors the opportunity to enjoy and appreciate a sample of Dubuque's historic treasures, as well as to promote interest in their preservation. The tour serves as a fundraiser for area historic places and educational materials supported through this grant program. This year’s tour focuses on Dubuque’s historic Northend, with homes in the scenic Broadway neighborhood and the newly restored White House at Four Mounds. There is no parking at Four Mounds. A shuttle must be taken to see the White House.
Sign up to win a one night stay at the White House at the Four Mounds Inn and Conference Center when you tour this home. The winning name will be drawn the following Thursday at our regular OHE meeting.
Proceeds from last year’s tour helped support restoration at the Four Mounds White House.
