Tour of Homes 2026

Join the Wauwatosa Historical Society on Saturday, October 17th, for a unique journey through one of Wauwatosa’s most historic corridors.

This year’s Tour of Homes explores Milwaukee Avenue and the surrounding streets, showcasing a thoughtfully curated collection of historic homes and significant buildings and landmarks that tell the story of our community’s growth. From early pioneer-era residences to beautifully preserved architectural treasures, each stop offers a glimpse into the people, craftsmanship, and history that helped shape Wauwatosa.

As always, knowledgeable volunteers will be stationed throughout the tour to share the history of each property and the families who called it home.

Specific tour locations will be announced as they are confirmed, but you can expect an engaging mix of historic homes, remarkable architecture, and stories that bring Wauwatosa’s past to life.

Whether you’re passionate about historic preservation, looking for inspiration for your own home, or simply love discovering the stories behind our community, the Tour of Homes offers a memorable way to experience Wauwatosa’s rich history.
