Frankfort Holiday House Walk: A Peek at Decorated Downtown Homes

The Frankfort Area Historical Society's Holiday House Walk returns Friday, Dec 4, 2026, with ticket holders touring beautifully decorated homes and holiday stops across historic downtown Frankfort.

Frankfort's Holiday House Walk is one of downtown's most charming December traditions. On Friday, Dec 4, 2026, the Frankfort Area Historical Society opens the doors of beautifully decorated homes and holiday stops around downtown, giving ticket holders a peek inside some of the village's historic residences dressed for the season. Tickets run about $35 and support the society's local history programs. It is a great Friday-night start to a December weekend: tour the homes, then wander Breidert Green with its shops, bakeries, and restaurants glowing in the holiday lights. Arrive early for the meeting point and times on the society and village pages, and bundle up for the walk between stops.
