Wright Hotel tours

The Historic Wright Hotel in downtown Chatsworth will be open for tours each Saturday during October as well as the weekends of Oct. 4- 5 and Oct. 25-26. Hours are from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturdays and 1 to 4 p.m. on Sundays.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Wright Hotel was built in 1909 and opened for business in 1910. Operated by the Thomas Wright family for more than three decades, others leased the facility until the 1960s.
Katherine Wright Raine, daughter of the original builders, returned to Chatsworth after a career as a public health nurse among the Indians of the American Southwest in the 1970s. She carefully restored most of the hotel and then bequeathed the building to the Whitfield-Murray Historical Society upon her death in 1986.
Today the property contains many fine antiques, various old hotel furnishings, numerous Indian crafts, nursing memorabilia and some recent additions that portray life through the 20th century. Various publications and historical society items will be available in the gift shop.
Admission is $2 for adults and $1 for ages 12-18, with children admitted free. During the first weekend in October, the Chatsworth Train Depot will also be open for the annual arts festival, co-sponsored by the historical society and the Chatsworth-Murray County Library. For more information, call (706) 695-4313 or (706) 695-4200.
