Get ready for Historic Florence Home Tour
AZBigMedia
Early Florence, Arizona was driven by the discovery of silver and supported by a strong agricultural base. The resulting economic opportunities, born of a growing town, attracted a diverse population which is reflected in many of today’s Florence homes and other structures.
The architectural styles of Florence’s historic homes reveal more than the adobe and brick foundations. Archaeologists often study architecture to learn more about past societies and communities. Historic homes and buildings speak volumes about the lives of this community’s earliest inhabitants.
Florence history will come alive at the 34th Annual Historic Florence Home Tour on Saturday, February 9, 2019. Visitors will view a total of 18 homes and historical structures, each with unique architectural styles. The tour begins at Jaques Square located at 291 North Main Street. Day-of-ticket sales begins at 9:30 a.m., while the tour is open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
