Description
Two one-house passes to visit the Newport Mansions.
The Gilded Age (1865-1914) was a rich and complex period in American culture, which played a critical role in shaping the modern world we live in now. Vast industrial fortunes, monumental architecture, and the emergence of the United States as a world power mark the era.
Newport was the summer social capital of the nation during this time. The families who built summer houses in this coastal city were leaders in national life, in great part driving American art, architecture, diplomacy, and business. Newport's houses reflect the evolution of the country's architecture and the social story of the people who designed, built, lived in, and maintained these buildings.
