Harvest Moon Tour

This unique tour lets visitors explore the National Historic Landmark, including the third floor, and see how this architectural gem takes on a completely different look in the moonlight.

Architectural historians consider the 1892 Bishop’s Palace one of the country's most significant Victorian residences. Bishop’s Palace (a.k.a. Gresham House) is a contributing building in the East End Historic District and a National Historic Landmark. It is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places at the national level of significance in architecture.

Tickets are non-refundable, and photographs are always encouraged! Visit or #galvestonhistory for more information.

Galveston Historical Foundation is committed to making our programs and historic sites special needs accessible. At this time, however, Bishop’s Palace does not have a ramp for wheelchairs or walkers and is not fully accessible to those with physical disabilities.

ABOUT GALVESTON HISTORICAL FOUNDATION

GHF was formed as the Galveston Historical Society in 1871 and merged with a new organization formed in 1954 as a non-profit entity devoted to historic preservation and history in Galveston County. Over the last sixty years, GHF has expanded its mission to encompass community redevelopment, historic preservation advocacy, maritime preservation, coastal resiliency and stewardship of historic properties. GHF embraces a broader vision of history and architecture that encompasses advancements in environmental and natural sciences and their intersection with historic buildings and coastal life and conceives of history as an engaging story of individual lives and experiences on Galveston Island from the 19th century to the present day.
