A visit to this mansion is an experience into the past. You will enter a Victorian home finished in 1882.  It features          elaborate handcrafted woodwork, beautiful stained glass windows and elegant antiques from the Victorian Age era to the early 20th century.

The Victorian Shoppe allows the visitor to browse through a variety of  authentic Victorian reproductions, teapots, jewelry and fine gift items available at a reasonable price.

The museum is only one of the activities of the Leavenworth County Historical Society (LCHS).  The LCHS was founded in 1954 to research and preserve an accurate history on the area, to encourage pride in the achievements of Leavenworth pioneers and to stimulate interest in local history.

The mansion is open Tuesday thru Saturday, 10:30am-4:30pm.  Closed, Sundays and Mondays and Federal holidays. Admission is charged.  For more information on museum activities and the historical society, contact (913) 682-7759 during operating hours or visit their website, www.leavenworthhistory.org.
