The Garrett Jacobs Mansion, located in Baltimore's Mount Vernon neighborhood, is a stunning example of Gilded Age architecture, originally built in 1853. It was transformed by Mary Frick Garrett Jacobs and her husband Robert into a grand residence featuring over forty rooms, sixteen fireplaces, and exquisite details designed by renowned architect Stanford White. The mansion showcases a blend of artistic craftsmanship, including stained glass by Tiffany and frescoes by Thomas Dewey, and is adorned with a collection of museum-quality art. Visitors can explore its rich history, beautiful gardens, and the legacy of the Garrett family, who played significant roles in Baltimore's social and economic development during the 19th century.
