In the past month we have had guests who did not know that the Cleveland' Tremont area is home to the 'A Christmas Story House' !(3159 W. 11th Street) That's right, the restored house where much of the movie was filmed in 1983 is now a very popular museum, hosting over 100,000 visitors since it's inception several years ago. The museum has on display many things that you have seen in the movie including Randy's snowsuit, the original costumes from the movie, Miss Shield's chalk board, and of course, the infamous leg lamp! And believe me, that leg lamp is everywhere in Tremont!! Click on
Admission: $7.50
$5.50 for children 7 - 12
Free for children under 6
$6.50 for Seniors
Plan to visit the Museum on Wed. or Thurs from 10:00 - 5:00
Fri. or Sat from 10:00 - 7:00
Sun. from 12:00 - 5:00
Tours are every half hour until 4:30. But just remember that the most popular time to visit is right now through Christmas so plan ahead.
Visit the Cleveland area and find out everything we have to offer! Come and stay the night or the weekend! And when you watch the 24/7 showing of 'The Christmas Story' this Christmas Eve, remember that the movie was filmed here at the 'House' and also at the fabulous Higbee's department store that is now home to Positively Cleveland, the Visitor's and Convention Bureau.
