Dubuque Main Street is pleased to present Architecture Days, featuring a schedule of tours and events inviting the public to "Be Our Guest." We will shine a spotlight on historic hotels and guest houses in downtown Dubuque.
The Be Our Guest theme intends to increase appreciation of the history surrounding hotels and guest houses in Dubuque's downtown. Some of the structures to be highlighted are no longer utilized as guest houses, and others have been restored to their original purpose after a period of vacancy or alternative use.
Free Building Tours April 13-16, 12:00pm each day. Monday, April 13 | Tour of The Smokestack (the former Jefferson Hotel), 62 E. 7th St.; Tuesday, April 14 | Tour of Hotel Julien Dubuque, 200 Main St.; Wednesday, April 15 | Tour of The Hancock House Bed & Breakfast, 1105 Grove Terrace; Thursday, April 16 | Tour of The Mandolin Inn, 199 Loras Blvd.
