Step back in time and experience the Gilded Age. Coined by American author Mark Twain, the Gilded Age in America lasted from 1870 to 1900. Once referred to as “Mansion Row,” Sherman D. Phelps and his family built their home at 191 Court Street during this era. Now the last of its neighbors, this home has been preserved and is open to the public for tours, exhibitions, educational programs, and events.
Open for guided tours every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 11am-4pm. For other hours and special events, please see our website.
