The Aiken-Rhett House (c. 1820), located at 48 Elizabeth Street, is open 7 days a week from 10 am to 4 pm. You may visit anytime within those hours as we do not have reserved starting times for our self-paced audio tours at each site.
For groups of 12 or more, please call the house manager to reserve a tour. Discounts apply.
Plan Your Visit:
- Tours will be guided by our multi-media app and will take approximately 45 minutes.
- Each person will be asked to use earphones as a courtesy to others.
- Prepare in advance for your tour by downloading HCF’s FREE APP onto your personal device. You may use an HCF audio device if you bring your own earphones.
- Please note, due to the historic nature of each house museum, elevators are not available.
The HCF app includes multi-media tours of the Nathaniel Russell House, the Aiken-Rhett House, and a City Guide for sites around Charleston. Download the free HCF App from our website: https://app.cuseum.com/historic-charleston-foundation/
