Would you like to know what 19th Century Jacksonville was like? Then plan to stretch your legs in the comfort of morning temperatures at 10am on Historic Jacksonville, Inc.’s guided “Walk through History” tour! Prepare to time travel back to the late 1800s when Jacksonville was the hub of Southern Oregon. Hear how gambling money built a church; how the Civil War ended a successful mercantile partnership; how a saloon housed the county’s first museum; how fire reshaped the town; and how a railroad both destroyed the town and preserved it.
These guided walking tours leave from Jacksonville’s New City Hall (the historic Jackson County Courthouse/Jacksonville Museum) at 206 North 5th Street. Tours cover about 1 mile and last about 1 hour. Tours are FREE, but donations are always welcomed—all monies go towards maintaining and preserving historic buildings seen on the tour.

Join us for activities inspired by the current work on view at the Schneider Museum of Art. Explore the unique properties of burlap through painting and weaving activities. Bring your own shirt or material from home to create a gingham pattern on!
