Listing Details: The Carlsbad Historical Society, established in 1975, is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving, promoting and enhancing knowledge of the surrounding area's history, culture, traditions and landmarks. The Historic Magee House in Magee Park was chosen as the perfect piece from which to edify this goal. Visitors can take in the beauty of the historical rose gardens, attend one of a variety of educational lectures and tours are available as well.Also, Magee Park makes for a very pleasant stroll. The museum is open Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For history buffs, private tours with tea are given on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Schedules vary for this treat so call ahead and make it a date to remember. Another date to remember is the annual Victorian Christmas Celebration at the Magee House. Great care is taken to transport visitors to this early era using materials and styles reminiscent of early Carlsbad residents.
