Visit the Luxton Home and Garden It is the hope of the Foundation that the Luxton home and garden will continue to be a tangible link to Banff's history, and will be enjoyed by townspeople and visitors for many years to come. The Luxton Home Built in about 1905, it was home to Banff’s Luxton family for 90 years. Norman Luxton, Georgina McDougall Luxton and their daughter Eleanor all played important roles in the development and character of Banff. The Luxton Garden Georgie Luxton is credited with growing one of Banff’s first flower gardens, making the grounds of the house a very important component in the interpretation of the Luxton home. Tour Information Tours of the Luxton home are available through the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies on a regular basis during the summer season and by special arrangement during the remainder of the year.
