Step Into Christmas, 1800s-style: If your holiday spirit needs a little glow-up, Salisbury Mansion is flipping the switch Friday night with the return of its candlelit Home for the Holidays tours. From 5:30–7:30 p.m., wander through Worcester’s only historic house museum as docents from Preservation Worcester walk you through the Salisbury family’s three-generation story next door.
Each room is dressed to the nines—parlor, library, drawing rooms and all—making this a warm, old-fashioned kickoff to the season. Tours take place every Friday through Jan. 2, 2026. Admission is free for members and $15 for everyone else; no reservations needed.
