The City of Riverside in partnership with the Riverside Downtown Partnership and the Mission Inn Museum and Foundation are hosting the City’s eighth annual Doors Open event. Doors Open events began over 30 years ago in France and has since spread across Europe, North America, and Australia. These events provide free access to captivating historic sites that are often closed to the public. By opening the doors to these architectural gems, event organizers hope to increase awareness of historic architecture and the community’s collective heritage in California’s only Doors Open event.

Doors Open Riverside was awarded the 2019 Governor’s Historic Preservation Award, the only official preservation award presented by the State of California and given in recognition of “exceptional achievements in the field of historic preservation.” The award recognizes the collaborative endeavor by the Doors Open Riverside partners, the generosity of the building participants, and the diligent efforts by the Mission Inn Museum docents.

*Please note, docent led tours will be conducted in English.
