Kearney Mansion Museum & Gallery Tour

Overview

This tour is unique because the Kearney Mansion is about 70 percent original from when it was first commissioned in 1903 by Martin Theodore Kearney. This tour is not just about Kearney, but it highlights the structure of the mansion, the stories of the families that worked and lived on the Fruit Vale Estate (Kearney Park) and you can enjoy the scenic view of the grounds. The mansion and gallery is located inside of Kearney Park which is filled with palm trees. The park features a lovely olive grove path, disc golf course, and the historic Tea House, Ice House, Carriage House and Bell Tower that is a part of the mansion.

It was a small tour. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and stayed professional even when some of the tourist wasnt. Will go again when they open the attic up.

We have visited the Kerney Mansion museum, many times, with our children. Now that we have, grand children we visit with them. I love history, and share that love with our grandchildren. The Kerney story is very interesting, there is allot to learn. We happen to live nearby, and use that to our advantage.
