The Don Francisco Galindo House, also known as the Galindo House and Gardens, is a historical site located in Concord, California.

This 19th-century house offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the architectural style and lifestyle of the era.

Public Access to the Galindo House

In 2010, the ownership of the Galindo House and its property was transferred from the City of Concord to the Concord Historical Society. The society spent two years renovating the house before opening it to the public in 2012. This means that visitors can now explore the house and its grounds, experiencing the history and architecture firsthand.

    The Galindo Home And Gardens in Concord, United States, offers visitors a glimpse into 19th-century California life. This historic house museum, once home to the prominent Galindo family, showcases period furnishings and artifacts that reflect the area's rancho era.

    Visitors often appreciate the knowledgeable docents who provide insightful tours, bringing the history of the Galindo family and early Concord to life. The gardens surrounding the home are noted for their beauty, featuring native plants and offering a peaceful setting for reflection.
