    Join us at the Historic Nissen House on Thursday, April 11, from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m., where we will take a tour of the home and learn about its history, occupants, and restoration. Constructed c. 1876, the house belonged to George Elias Nissen (the eldest son of John Phillip Nissen - founder of Nissen Wagon Works). In 2023, Preservation Forsyth recognized the Lewisville Historical Society/Nissen House Steering Committee with a Nonprofit Restoration Award. Do not miss your opportunity to see their accomplishments. 

    The tour is limited to 45 people and the cost is $20.00 for members and $30.00 for non-members. Refreshments will be provided. Spaces will not last long, so be sure to reserve your spot today.

Restored in 1996, the cottage features garden designs by landscape designers Chip Calloway and John Newman. Parking is available on the street.
