Choctaw Hall Christmas Tour

Highlights

Description

Step into the graceful world of Choctaw Hall — one of Natchez’s most exquisite mansions — beautifully adorned for the Christmas season. As part of the Little Easy Tours Christmas Pilgrimage, this grand four-story home invites visitors to wander through layers of history, hospitality, and holiday splendor. Built in the 1830s, Choctaw Hall seamlessly blends Greek Revival and Federal styles, featuring stately columns, sweeping staircases, and period furnishings that transport guests to a bygone era. During the holidays, every room bursts with festive color — garlands of magnolia and cedar, glittering ornaments, and golden ribbons adorning mantels and doorways. The scent of evergreen fills the air as docents share stories of the families who once gathered here for Christmas celebrations steeped in Southern tradition. From its marble foyer to the grand ballroom, each floor reveals a new scene of seasonal beauty, creating a visual journey through the centuries. Guests are encouraged to linger, enjoy the soft sounds of carols, and soak in the glow of candlelight reflecting on polished wood and crystal chandeliers. It’s an elegant yet heartfelt celebration that captures what Natchez does best — making history feel alive, warm, and unforgettable.
