34th Hyattsville House Tour Today

The 34th annual Historic Hyattsville House Tour kicks off later this afternoon. This year's event features nine houses. 

You'll have to buy a ticket to find out just which nine historic Hyattsville houses are open for touring. The homes featured the tour are kept secret until the day of the event. 

This year's tour is dedicated to the suffragettes who rallied in Hyattsville in 1913 for an innovative motorized rally to bring to Washington a petition seeking to give women the right to vote.

The tour runs from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. today. 

If you haven't already purchased yours, tickets are available at the Hyattsville Municipal Building at 4310 Gallatin Street for $12 a pop. A ticket gets you a map of the locations and access to a circulator bus which will be transporting passengers from home to home. 

Last year's Historic Hyattsville House Tour featured a variety of buildings, including the Independent Order of Odd Fellows hall on Gallatin Street, the former DeMatha rectory, and an assortment of homes from the Victorian era through the 1950s.
