Holiday Tour of Eternal Homes at Victorian Holiday - Oakland Cemetery


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 12/14/2019
Get in the spirit of the season and explore a few of Oakland’s magnificent mausoleums on the Holiday Tour of Eternal Homes during Victorian Holiday! Led by a Victorian guide, this walking tour takes you on a “behind-the-stones” look at several of the cemetery’s mausoleums. Learn about these iconic stone structures while listening to the stories of the Oakland residents buried within. You will have the chance step inside each mausoleum and building, which are all decorated for the holidays by local artists and designers.
