Bourbon Goes Better with History, Architecture and Ghosts

 

 

If you Like Victorian, you will Love Old Louisville

The Louisville Bourbon Inn bed and breakfast is located in the center of Old Louisville, a neighborhood of about 48 city blocks. Old Louisville is the largest historic preservation district that features almost exclusively Victorian architecture, and most homes are constructed with brick. Old Louisville also has more homes with stained glass windows than any other neighborhood in the United States! However, some people claim that these Victorian mansions are home to spirits and ghosts that continue to inhabit the houses. You might hear Old Louisville referred to as “America’s Most Haunted Neighborhood.”

You can explore Old Louisville at your leisure and create a self-guided tour by walking around the neighborhood. If you would like to learn more about specific homes and architectural styles, we offer a guided architectural tour package called the Historic Louisville Tour. If you’re curious about the the ghosts and spirits that might inhabit some of the Victorian mansions, we also offer a guided ghost tour package called the Louisville Ghost Tour. Both packages also include dinner and are described in more detail below. You can add the tours to your reservation when you book your suite.

Historic Louisville Tour

Add this guided tour of Old Louisville to your itinerary when you book a stay in one of our elegant and comfortable suites. We will provide you with two tickets to Louisville Historic Tour’s guided tour of Old Louisville. When you return to the Louisville Bourbon Inn, you can share your knowledge about Romanesque Revival (the architectural style of the Inn). We also provide two tickets to the Conrad Caldwell Historic House Museum where you can hear about the history of the mansion from a tour guide who is a descendent of the original owners. And since all that knowledge will probably make you hungry, we also provide a $50 gift card to local Louisville restaurant that our guests really enjoy. Best of all, everything is within walking distance of the Bed and Breakfast! 

Please note that the Caldwell House is closed on Monday and Tuesday. All tickets are subject to availability, so we recommend you book your tour two to three months prior to your tour date.
