46th Annual
Historic Oakwood Candlelight Tour®

December 9 & 10, 2017
1:00 PM - 7:00 PM Both Days

There's a feeling of a small town community right in the middle of downtown Raleigh. Historic Oakwood is a community of homes most of which are dated from the mid- 1800s to the early 1900s. There's a continuing effort to preserve the Victorian architectural style from a century ago. The immaculate care of the exterior of a home is only a prelude to the beauty and attention to detail given to the interior.

Your annual opportunity to tour the interior of some of these homes happens each December during the Historic Oakwood Candlelight Tour®. Homes are staffed with docents to enlighten you on the rich history of each property. Tour the properties at your own pace in any order. View our Gallery for a glimpse into past tours or view pictures on Facebook. 

Get ready to take a walk through history this holiday season, as about a dozen homeowners in the Historic Oakwood neighborhood open their doors to visitors during the 46th Annual Historic Oakwood Candlelight Tour®, Saturday & Sunday, December 9th & 10th from 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. each day. Come back and visit our site in early November for information about ticket sales!
