This October visit our house to experience our newly reimagined candlelight tour, Mortality and Mourning: Women in Black. This hauntingly elegant experience builds on last year’s popular event, offering a deeper and more personal look into the ways women shaped and were shaped by grief, death, and mourning in Old St. Augustine.
Explore the 227-year-old Ximenez-Fatio House Museum draped in mourning, and uncover the roles women played as caretakers of the dead, keepers of memory, and practitioners of spiritualism from the Second Spanish Colonial Era through the Victorian Age. Through powerful stories, period customs, and historic mourning attire, this immersive tour casts new light on how women lived with loss in the 19th century.
This is a new version of our "Mortality and Mourning" tour—spooky, family-friendly, and steeped in untold stories.
With the purchase of your Mortality and Mourning ticket, you will receive a coupon code giving you a 25% off discount for our Everyday Self-guided Audio tour giving you the chance to learn the house's full history and see it in the daylight as well as by candlelight on your evening tour.
