Prince's legendary mansion and recording studio, Paisley Park, will soon be going the way of Graceland, KARE 11 reports.

The musician's home in Chanhassen, Minnesota, will soon be open for daily public tours of the property, so guests can see where Prince rehearsed, tracked, and mixed his albums, as well as the concert hall where he hosted private performances.

"I know people from all over the world are going to make Paisley Park in Chanhassen a destination," Chanhassen mayor Denny Laufenberger told KARE. "They will be very impressed with not only the genius of Prince the artist, but also Prince the visionary, for what he wanted his studio, his home to be. You see clear evidence that Prince was preparing that for people to see."

Prince, who was found dead in Paisley Park last April after an apparent opiate overdose, had amassed an extensive personal archive before he passed away. Items in the archive—from his costumes to his motorcycles to his instruments—will be on display during the tours in a museum section.

Tickets for the Paisley Park tours go on sale this Friday at 2 PM. The tours will start October 6.
