+, Behind the Scenes 45 min.+ & self guided Victorian Garden tours Grand Estate Tour *see it all Mansion 65 min.There are several Winchester Mystery House tour options to choose from I only have a few iPhone photos to share of outside the Winchester Mystery House but, see information below to see more images along with videos on their home site! If you planning touring with a group there are group tours and other group options available. This is the perfect activity to do over any holiday breaks you may have. Today I wanted to share with you why we love the tour so much and give you some information about it. Which at the time was a complete challenge to keep her quite and on par with the tour. We hadn’t taken Sammie there since she was a 4 year old when we visited with other family members. There is such a huge history and mystery to how the Winchester House was built. I thought it would be a great idea to get up, eat breakfast and go to visit the Winchester Mystery House a California Historical California Landmark (#868). When we landed back in CA after our long travel NYC trip we flew into San Jose CA. Margarita Recipes – Easy And Delicious!.**FUNNY FACT – Macie said “Should we really be talking down about the Empire State Building after what happened in 9-11………………….
WINCHESTER HOUSE CALIFORNIA WINDOWS
*FUN FACT – our tour guide told us it has more windows than the Empire State Building* We did the Mansion Tour where you see 110 of the 160 rooms – but there is also another option for an Explore More Tour where you can see the other parts of the house that are just recently being opened to the public – kind of wish we would have done this one because I saw all the groups walking around with hard hats and it made me think that maybe it was a little more adventurous HAHA! The tour was super cool and I would definitely recommend going if you are in the San Jose area! Tickets are $20 for children or $39 for adults. Let’s just leave it at this lady was STRANGE!!! The house features the number 13 multiple times throughout in many different ways, windows in rooms, windows with 13 panes, 13 steps on the stairways, 13 ceiling panels in many ceilings. Sarah Winchester was a short lady, so the house was built for her…which means if you are tall, be prepared for lower walkways and doors! We really enjoyed our tour! You walk in and purchase your ticket at the gift shop and then enter the tour in the court yard where your tour takes about an hour! Definitely wear some good walking shoes, our tour guide told us by the end of the tour you walk about a mile.
WINCHESTER HOUSE CALIFORNIA MOVIE
Y’all this house is CRAZY!!! There are doorways that lead to nowhere, staircases to ceilings, hidden passages and close to 160 rooms! It won national attention from a recently released movie Winchester: The House that Ghosts Built.Īs our tour guide told us, the movie has very little to no truths….but it did bring a lot of media attention back to the home! The house was constantly under construction until her death!
The Winchester House was built by Sarah Winchester, who was the widow of rifle manufacturer, William Winchester! When her husband died, she moved out west to build a home in which she believed was haunted by the many people killed by Winchester guns. *PS I forgot to get a picture of the front of the house.OOPS! So I stole this one off Google* Do you want to visit somewhere that many consider one of the “most haunted places in America?” Well the Winchester Mystery House is a MUST!!!
