Take a ghost tour of the Seelbach

Support the Louisville Downtown Partnership — and maybe see some ghosts along the way.

Louisville’s Seelbach Hotel was built in 1905, and in the ~120 years since it has garnered quite a haunted reputation.

The Seelbach has been featured on lists of the most haunted hotels in America, and you have a chance to take a unique tour of the iconic landmark — all while helping downtown stay tidy and welcoming.

The Louisville Downtown Partnership (LDP) is offering a ghost tour of the Seelbach Hotel on Thursday, Oct. 24, exclusive to Friends of Downtown.

You can become a Friend of Downtown by donating any amount annually or monthly, which helps support the Downtown Partnership’s efforts to keep downtown LOU healthy and vibrant through initiatives like the ambassadors program.

Friends of Downtown will receive an invite to the exclusive tour of the Seelbach ahead of the tour date.
