The Christmas Mansion

The Stetson Mansion 15th Annual

"Christmas Spectacular!" Holiday Home Tours

Winner: USA Today's

"10 Best Holiday Home Tours in America"

2026-2027

THEME:

"A GILDED NOEL"

Tour Highlights

This enchanting event invites you to celebrate the holiday season with family and friends in Florida's most historic private home, where you will have the opportunity to embark on a magical journey through 10 beautiful rooms designed and intricately decorated by the owners. Each room theme honors .

Recognized by USA TODAY as "#1 Christmas Display in Florida" and "#2 in the USA," the Stetson Mansion is the perfect venue for a holiday home tour. After all, it was the Victorians who started our current traditions like decorated trees and gift giving. Built in 1886 for iconic hat maker John B. Stetson, its intricate wood carvings, 16 unique parquet floor patterns, and 10,000 panes of antique glass, dazzles visitors admiring this year's designer decorations. Thomas Edison, a close friend of John B. Stetson, installed the electric system that allowed for one of the first sets of electric Christmas tree lights to illuminate a tree in the Stetson Mansion.

The Self-Guided audio tour focuses specifically on Christmas and does not cover historical aspects; however, a detailed history will be emailed to you. For those interested in a more comprehensive experience, we also offer the Guided Tour that combines both the festive elements of Christmas and the mansion's rich history.

Regular historic tours resume in February.
