The Gibson House served as a residence to three generations of Gibson family members and their household staff between 1859 and 1954. The Museum’s four floors of period rooms, including the original ground-floor kitchen, are a time capsule of domestic life in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Our regular house tour allows visitors to explore the house and consider issues of class and culture through the stories and objects of the people who lived and worked here. We also offer specialty house tours on a variety of topics and events throughout the year. (Regular tours do not include the fourth floor, which holds the museum's offices, or the fifth floor, although the latter is included in some specialty tours.)
