Cielo Drive
Cielo Drive was the site of Sharon Tate's house. The house was torn down in the 1990s and another house has been constructed on the site.
Below are some of my web pages concerning Cielo Drive.

Sharon and Roman moved to Cielo Drive on February 15, 1969. Sharon left for Europe on March 24, 1969. Several of these photos show Sharon packing in the front bedroom for the trip. Shahrokh Hatami took photographs of Sharon at the house on March 23, so that is possibly when some of these were taken. March 23 is also the date Charles Manson visited Rudi Altobelli at the Cielo property. Could Sharon be
looking out the guest bedroom window at an unusual visitor in one of the photos above?
Thanks to Adrian Dobie for color versions of these photographs!

RARE PHOTOS OF THE CIELO DRIVE HOUSE
The following rare photos were collected by Adrian Dobie. Thanks greatly for sharing Adrian!

The photo above was taken in late August 1969. It is from a French magazine and was spread across two pages. So, you may notice a splice down the middle. Note the Christmas lights on the fence rail. These were installed by Candice Bergen (before Sharon and Roman moved in). They were also mentioned by
William Garretson in his police polygraph exam ("I could see her light all the way down... to the Strip"). You can even see a some of the bulbs in the photo of Sharon and Roman on the Cielo walkway.
Above is a photo of the front bedroom used by Folger and Frykowski in 1969.This photo is from 1969 and is the only shot I know of that shows the ceiling rafters.
The above photo shows actress Michele Morgan at the Cielo pool.
The house was built for her and she was the first resident.
This is Candice Bergen on the front lawn of the Cielo house. The lighting of Candice is odd and I'd assume it's been lightened to show her better. It shows us a different view of the front of the house than seen
elsewhere. I can't remember seeing that bench on the porch in any other photo, either.
Cielo Drive, 1999
Cielo Drive in 1999
Jim Nix took the following photos of the former Sharon Tate property in 1999. Obviously, the original house is long gone, but you can see the new construction. Thanks Jim!

Above is a photo of the door from the Cielo Drive murder house. The door was apparently removed by the last occupant of the house before its demolition. The door is now on a house in an entirely different state. I've been asked to keep the location private, so I've blocked out the street address. Thanks to Tim Mizell for the photo and information!

Below are photos taken in November 2005, after Hurricane Katrina. The door did survive. In the first, you'll see the exterior is no longer painted white. The second shot is a very rare interior view! Thanks to a wonderful contributor for these photos.
Cielo Twin House
CIELO TWIN HOUSE
Below is a photo of the so-called "twin house." It is located directly below the Tate home and has the address of 10048 Cielo Drive. Note they are similar but the twin is shorter in length.
Of some interest, this house was one of the closest neighbors on the night of the murders.
Also note the first photo gives a rare view of the Tate guest house where William Garretson was staying in the summer of 1969.

Note the twin isn't an actual perfect copy of the Tate house.
Thanks to Tim Boylan and Oliver from Germany.

The Tate house was located just to the left of the center of this photo. A large mansion now occupies the site.
