What a great activity, I loved it! Our guide was perfect and very knowledgeable about the history of the house and Boston. I recommend it for anyone who loves history.
Completed in 1860, the Gibson House stands virtually untouched as a historic house museum in Back Bay. A unique and unspoiled single-family residence, it retains its kitchen, scullery, butler's pantry, and water closets, as well as formal rooms and private quarters. As early as 1936, Charles Gibson Jr. decided to preserve his nineteenth-century townhouse as a museum. He died in 1954 and the Gibson House was officially opened to the public as a museum in 1957. In 2001, the National Park Service designated Gibson House as a National Historic Landmark. Visits are by guided tour only, Thursday-Sunday. Visit our website to confirm tour offerings.
