Irish Ramble Tour

Step back in time during the Irish Ramble Tour, and explore the architectural beauty and Southern charm of Dublin, Georgia, Saturday, March 28th from 9 AM until 3 PM. Hosted by the Erin Garden Club of the Camellia District, this official St. Patrick’s Festival event invites visitors to experience Dublin’s rich history through some of its most iconic landmarks.

Dublin’s story spans more than two centuries, shaped by craftsmanship, perseverance, and civic pride. A ticket to the Irish Ramble includes an opening ceremony at Theatre Dublin, access to an art show at the Carnegie Library presented by ART Dublin, and guided access to several historic sites, including the Page House, First Baptist Church, and the Lovett House.

Guests will tour the Page House, an 11-room Classic Revival home built around 1900 that reflects Dublin’s Gilded Age elegance, complete with intricate woodwork, stained glass, and a grand ballroom once used for social gatherings.

At First Baptist Church, visitors will experience one of Dublin’s most stately landmarks. Constructed in 1910 in a Gothic style inspired by Scotland’s Melrose Abbey, the church has long been a cornerstone of the community.

The tour also features the Lovett House, a Neo-Classical home built in 1904 and once owned by influential attorney Frank Corker, whose legacy includes investment in some of Dublin’s most recognizable buildings.
