Old Pasadena has gone from drab and dingy to a shopping and dining destination but without Pasadena Heritage, it would have been demolished! When founded 36 years ago, saving Old Pasadena was a top priority. Now it is one of the finest examples of downtown revitalizations in the country. As you wander Old Pasadena with one of our trained docents, you will find many beautiful and unusual details. During the research process, it was discovered that the old alleyways had remained virtually unchanged since Pasadena’s earliest days. Some alleyways even retain their historic signs, which are protected today.
Tickets are $12 for members and $15 for the public. Tickets may be purchased here.
