Glensheen offers two guided tours of the historic mansion and grounds-only admission for visitors who just want to enjoy the gardens.
This one-hour fully guided tour of Glensheen’s family living and work spaces showcases original interiors in styles ranging from Renaissance Revival and Colonial Revival to Arts & Crafts. Stories of the Congdon family and others who lived and worked at Glensheen bring this magnificent mansion to life. Tour includes the basement, first floor, and second floor. Tour the Carriage House and the beautifully landscaped grounds at your leisure before and after the tour.
This one-and-a-half-hour fully guided tour expands on the Standard Tour by including the third floor, where our guests can see some of the most significant and beautiful Arts & Crafts interiors in the Midwest. Due to limited tour capacity, these tours often sell out early.

The mansion’s central hallway is paneled from floor to ceiling with fumed oak, a process whereby the oak is treated with ammonia fumes to bring out the grain and imbue the wood with an unusual color.
