About this Event

1906 Fényes Mansion Tour
12:30 to 2:00 pm | Selected Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays


In this introductory docent-guided tour, you will learn about the historic residence and its original owners, artist, art collector, and patron, Eva Scott Fényes, her husband, Dr. Adalbert Fényes, and their family. As you cross the threshold, you will explore a home essentially unchanged from its days as a residence showcasing Eva’s Victorian-style décor, antique furnishings, and art collection.

As an added bonus, visitors will be able to experience the Fényes Mansion in its Edwardian holiday décor for the season. Visitors can view the holiday trimmings and embellishments in the Reception Hall, Drawing and Dining Rooms, and Studio from November 23 through January 11, 2026.

Admission includes a docent-led tour of the Fényes Mansion and entrance into the Museum’s exhibition galleries. For exhibition information, click .
