Join the Historical Society on May 3 & 4 as they celebrate New Bern and showcase her enduring beauty with a very special Heritage Homes Tour encompassing two historic neighborhoods.
The 2024 self-guided tour includes very exceptional homes in the Downtown and Ghent Historic Districts, ranging from glorious to tiny, and everything in between. These are livable family homes with rich stories and diverse architecture that illustrate New Bern's amazing history. Add creative floral arrangements, live music, gardens in bloom, historical churches and you’ll enjoy a very special day.
New Bern Historical Society’s Executive Director, Mickey Miller explains, “This year’s tour is a feast for the senses! It highlights New Bern’s wonderful diversity of architecture, with exciting homes.”
In addition to remarkable homes, you’ll be fascinated by working artists and musicians performing on porches. Your day will be full! Your map, which is your ticket, will guide you to all these delights.
