Travel more than 150 years back in time on the 49th Annual Florence Historic Home & Building Tour—an exciting opportunity to explore one of Arizona’s oldest towns. Established in 1866, Florence played an important role as a regional administrative center for all federal land transactions for Southern Arizona. The Arizona State Prison moved to Florence in 1908, replacing the Territorial Prison in Yuma. Throughout its history Florence’s architecture evolved from rustic Sonoran adobe brick buildings to the Modern Movement and all the architectural styles that existed in Territorial Arizona can be found along the streets of Florence today. We’ll stroll charming downtown Florence and enjoy the hop-on, hop-off trolley ride, or just stay with your van. Lunch is on self, with several great little restaurants to choose from.
