We are proud to present Juneteenth Tours all month long. Tour 3 historic houses designated by UNESCO as Sites of Memory for their "Slave Route Project" including the Reverend Jack Yates House.

Tours booked Juneteenth weekend, 6/18-6/20, include teacakes and red punch! This was our most popular tour last year.

We have 10 AM, 11:30 AM, 1 PM, and 2:30 PM tours available.

House Beautiful recently published how our tour was a must-see Black History event! The tour consists of three (3) historic structures including the 1847 Kellum-Noble House, 1870 Jack Yates House, and the 1866 Fourth Ward Cottage.

Our tour guides will demonstrate the contrast of the lives of African-Americans living in Houston before and after the Civil War. New research conducted on the 1847 Kellum-Noble House has revealed the names of several enslaved men, women, and children who lived and worked on the property. The history of this home discusses urban slavery in Houston, whereas the Yates House and Fourth Ward Cottage tell about life after Emancipation in the community known as Freedmen’s Town established by African-Americans.
