Callanwolde History Tours

Callanwolde was the home of the family of Charles Howard Candler (1878-1957) from 1920 until 1959. From 1959 on, Callanwolde experienced a number of evolutions before becoming a fine arts center in 1972. During this 1 hour tour, learn the mysteries and histories of the Callanwolde Mansion, the Candler Family, Callanwolde's connections to Emory University, Coca-Cola, and its recent history as a fine arts center. You will learn both the architectural history of the Tudor and neo-Gothic Mansion, but also its social history, and why Callanwolde has become such a beloved place to so many. Tours are held daily at 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM.

Please meet in the Great Hall lobby before your allotted time where you will begin the tour.
