I have toured the Barker Mansion twice, both times at Christmas. They do a different theme each year. Several years ago I went when it was a Charles Dickens theme, this year was a fairy tail Christmas theme. They have each room in the house decorated to go with the theme.

Owner description:
Learn more about the mansion built by one of the founding fathers of the rail car industry, John H. Barker. This house, while actually lived in for only a very short time, has brought many years of enjoyment to the Barker family, and to the residents of the City of Michigan City. From educational guided tours to special seasonal functions, the Barker Mansion and Civic Center is a true jewel in the crown of Michigan City.

The Barker Mansion is a wonderful and stunning huge home that is on the National Register of Historic Places. It has been beautifully maintained and has some original furnishings. If you enjoy a peak into luxury of old, take the tour, it's time well spent.
