Historic Dunham Castle Holiday Reception

melinda kintz, Neighbor

A rare opportunity to get behind the gates of this local historic treasure built in the 1800's and attend a holiday reception on the first floor of this castle. See the tapestry covered foyer, parque floors, incredible trim work and even a square grand piano from the 1860's. The castle is currently unoccupied and in the midst of restoration and it is open for 2 days only as an American Cancer Society fundraiser hosted by the Alex's Army Relay for Life team.


Enjoy refreshments, presentations by local historians, live music and unique furnishings provided by the Fox Valley habitat for HUmanity ReStore. Walk the rooms once visited by Marshall Fields, Adlai Stevenson and more.
