What You'll Find:
Nestled on a hill amongst the trees, Glendower Historic Mansion was built ca. 1845 and lived in until the 1940s. Over those 100 years, it served as a home to only three owners: a prosecuting attorney, a Union Civil War general and a rich socialite. For the last 80 years, the stately manor has served as a museum, providing a natural setting for many elegant furnishings and culturally significant artifacts from Warren County’s past. Learn more about the history of Glendower Mansion here. Noted as “one of the finest examples of Residential Greek Revival architecture style in the Midwest,” Glendower Mansion’s exterior features include Ionic and Doric columns, classic carved cornices and porticoes and a hipped roof with a captain’s walk. This elegant exterior is a popular backdrop for those looking to exchange their vows on the grounds cared for by our Master Gardeners. Parking & Entrance:
