This weekend, the historic houses in Fairmount Park will get all dolled up for the holiday season, and open their doors for special holiday tours.

Cedar Grove, Laurel Hill, Lemon Hill, Mount Pleasant, Sweetbriar, Ormiston and Woodford will be decorated and open from 10AM to 4PM, Friday, December 3rd through Sunday, December 5th, and again the following weekend. Trolley tours of the houses will depart from the Fairmount Water Works, and the $25 ticket includes the ride and guided tours of three mansions.

Not interested in catching the trolley? Provide your own transportation, and pay only $5 per house. Proceeds from these tours go towards preserving these historic mansions.

For more info, be sure to visit Fairmount Park’s official website.
