Save the dates for our 36th Annual Fall Tours of Homes and Gardens, September 27th through October 28th, 2012 .

We invite you to experience Charleston’s distinctive architecture, history and culture during the Preservation Society of Charleston’s 36th Annual Fall Tours of Homes and Gardens. Visit intimate gardens and architecturally significant private homes, churches and public buildings as you stroll through our historic streets.   Tours highlight American architecture from the early Georgian Period into the 21st century.  You will enjoy unique neighborhoods that represent Charleston’s flourishing culture from the Colonial era to the present.   Most of the properties on tour are privately owned and are open to the public exclusively for the Preservation Society of Charleston.

The Fall Tours of Homes and Gardens are the Society’s foremost annual fund raising and educational opportunity.  This five week event is possible only as a result of the generosity of owners of historic properties, loyal Society members and dedicated volunteers.  Our Board of Directors welcomes you and hopes that each guest will come to understand, as we do, that Preservation is Progress.  Join us as together we experience Charleston’s very special sense of place and the unique heritage of this National Historic Landmark city.
