Newtown Historic Association Holiday Open House Tour

NOTE: On the day of the tour you must pick up your tour booklet (which gets you into the houses) at the Stocking Works, 301 S. State St., Newtown.

The Newtown Historic Association's Holiday House Tour returns for its 56th year on Saturday, December 1st.

An anticipated winter tradition, make it yours and take this self-guided walking tour of the 6 private residences and the 6 public buildings featured this year.

The $30 cost of a tour ticket also includes entry into the Half-Moon Inn, home to the Newtown Historic Association. Once inside this beautifully restored 18th century building, tour goers will enjoy period musical entertainment, hearthside colonial cooking demonstrations and refreshments of mulled cider and cheese.

Midway through the tour, respite can be found at several of the borough churches hosting lunches at a reasonable cost. After the tour, dine at one of the restaurants and get a head start on holiday shopping by visiting the shops along State Street.

Tour hours are from 10:00AM to 4:00PM.

In the event of major snow, the tour will be held on Sunday, December 2nd.
