Christmas Parlor Tour

Celebrate Christmas in Albany – from the inside – at the Monteith House and other lovely historic homes on the 46th Christmas Parlour Tour, from 2 to 7 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 14.

Homeowners will graciously open their homes for this event, a longstanding Albany tradition. Visitors will be invited into historic homes for a tour of their parlor. They can ooh and ahh over the archiectural and design features, as well as the Christmas decor.

The Monteith Historical Society, the host for this event, will also decorate Albany’s oldest frame home in the style of Christmas from the mid-1800s.

As usual, visitors are asked to please not touch items in the homes and to not take photos or video.
