Portions of Mobile’s Bellingrath Gardens and Home (BGH) reopened to the public Friday, almost two months after closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In a statement, BGH announced a phased reopening plan. The first phase takes effect today with the gardens and gift shop opening daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., while the home will remain temporarily closed. The Magnolia Café will be open for drinks only.

BGH said the reopening adheres to COVID-19 safety guidelines and procedures recommended by government and health officials. These guidelines include social distancing of at least 6 feet, hand sanitizer stations and protective shields in buildings, masks for employees who interact with the public and hourly cleanings of restrooms, door handles and other surfaces.
