Friends of Joseph Priestley House Welcomes Visitors!
We’re reopening! Beginning August 9, the Joseph Priestley House is once again offering weekend tours. While restoration work continues, many rooms — including the parlor, dining room, and library — are now beautifully repainted and ready for visitors.
Tours will be by donation only through the end of 2025 — a perfect time to rediscover this historic site and see restoration in action!
Tours are offered Saturday and Sunday between the hours of 1pm, 2pm, and 3pm, August 9th through November 16th. Note, no tours will be held on October 25th between 1pm-3pm, but please join us for our Ghost Tours, between 7pm-9pm on October 25th! Regular tour hours will resume on Sunday, October 26th.
Walk-ins Welcome
