Hormel Historic Home​

The Hormel Historic Home was the treasured home of George A. & Lillian Hormel,
​now a historic house museum open for tours, event rentals, & Community Events.
​
Visit us
​Built in 1871, The Hormel Historic Home strives to preserve the Home and History of the George A. and Lillian Hormel Family.
Now a community resource with a mission to preserve the home and to honor the family legacy of Hospitality, Music, Education, and community service through meaningful programming and outreach.  

In 2010, the Hormel Historic Home had a vision to create Autism Programming to serve youth on the spectrum and their families.  That initiative, now called Autism Friendly Austin, is making our community more inclusive and understanding of autism spectrum disorder.

If you are traveling from a distance you're welcome to call us to check tour hour updates as we sometimes have events who rent the historic house for special events.  We also do our best to update our social media and place a sign on the front door or porch if hours will differ.
Special Event Hours Vary and are Customized Per Event
