House from A Christmas Story

A Christmas Story House, now restored to its movie splendor, is open year round to the public for tours. Directly across the street from the house is the official A Christmas Story House Museum, which features original props, costumes and memorabilia from the film, as well as hundreds of rare behind-the-scenes photos. Among the props and costumes are the toys from the Higbee’s window, Randy’s snowsuit, the chalkboard from Miss Shields’ classroom and the family car. After reliving A Christmas Story at Ralphie’s house don’t forget to visit the museum gift shop for your own Major Award Leg Lamp and other great movie memorabilia. A Christmas Story House has FREE street parking on the streets in front of and directly adjacent to the property. A couple of residents adjoining A Christmas Story House run PAID parking on their property.  A Christmas Story House is not affiliated with either of these operations. When arriving at A Christmas Story House, we recommend looking for FREE street parking before paying to park.
