Colonial Homes of Dutchess County: A Tour of Historic Interiors

Saturday, April 25

Histoury is celebrating America’s 250th birthday throughout the entire year with a special goal: to pass or include 250 colonial homes across their 2026 tours. This tour brings guests inside several private historic homes located in Hopewell Junction (East Fishkill), Wingdale, and—just over the border in Putnam County—a special interior stop in Patterson. Many additional colonial homes and historic buildings will be highlighted along the route from the comfort of our private charter bus.
