Historical Homes Walking Tour
Interested in historic homes? Late 19th and early 20th century residential architecture? We have the place for you.
Folks around here brag about the beautiful homes in Plattsburg. And they're right, Plattsburg has an enviable inventory of century-old homes including Queen Anne style, Victorians full of gingerbread embellishments and something unique called Steamboat Gothic.
We have captivating churches, too. First Christian Church (501 W. Clay Avenue) is a brick marvel built in 1891. If you're looking for a newly renovated old church that is once again true to its origins, check out St. Ann's Catholic Church, 700 W. Maple Street. The red brick beauty was originally built in 1888 and changed with the times. But in the 2020s, parishioners performed a stunning interior renovation that took the church back to its original glory.
