Downtown Petaluma Historical Walking Tours 2025

The Petaluma Historical Library & Museum invites you to join the "Petalumans of Yesteryear, " knowledgeable guides dressed in period attire, for a tour of historic downtown. Petaluma has a unique and fascinating history as a bustling river town during and after the Gold Rush, then as the "Chicken and Egg Capital of the World," and now as a town that loves its history. Learn about Petaluma’s incredible architecture (including 8 sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places) and other important and interesting facets of our town's history. You’ll be informed by your guide's historical knowledge and entertained by their characters’ stories.

Participant(s) with special needs can contact the Museum several days before the walk they have signed up to take, and they will be able to participate fully in the tour.
Free, suggested donation of $10 appreciated. Meet on the steps of the Museum at 4th and B Street at 10:30am to embark on your trip back through time.
