Gilded Age Holiday in the Fenyes Mansion - Tour and Tea

Thursdays, December 4, 11 & 18, 12:15 pm


One of our favorite Pasadena treasures is the 100 year-old Fenyes Mansion, home of the Pasadena Museum of History. Located on Orange Grove Boulevard, which at one time was lined with stately mansions and was known as “Millionaire’s Row”, the Fenyes Mansion has been well preserved and offers visitors a peek into early Pasadena life.

The holidays are a beautiful time to visit, as the mansion is decked out in festive Victorian/Edwardian-style décor. For this series of tours, docents will take guests back in time with stories of early 20th century decorating styles. The tour at the mansion is followed by a special tea at the Raymond Restaurant.

For more information on this event, as well as other PMH programs and events, visit the Pasadena Museum of History website.


Tickets: Tour: Members $4; Non-Members $8. Tea: $25 (payable at restaurant; 20% of your restaurant bill will be donated to PMH). Reservations for the Holiday Tour and Tea Package must be made through the Museum. Please call 626.577.1660, ext. 15.
