Accessibility

We recognize that 19th-century architecture poses some accessibility challenges and are always working to improve access to our house museums for all our visitors. The Hampton-Preston Mansion was constructed in 1818 and does not have elevator access. If you or your group have any accessibility concerns, please contact (803) 252-1770 ext. 23 for more information. Weekend visitors should contact Historic Columbia during regular weekday business hours to plan for an upcoming visit.

Refunds
Museum admission is not refundable. If you are no longer able to make your tour date, contact Reservations at reservations@historiccolumbia.org to change the date of your ticket.
