New Audio Tour of The Elms
Join us for an exciting update of The Elms audio tour, featuring new research and important restoration projects.
The new tour tells you about the return of long-absent Venetian paintings and the history and restoration of the 18th century Chinese lacquer panels in the breakfast room. It also expands on the servant life theme with new subject stops.
Together with audio tours at Marble House, Rosecliff and The Breakers (where you have a choice of the main tour or a Family Tour), our new tour of The Elms will give you a unique perspective on the houses and on the lives of the people who worked and lived in them.

The eLMs 1901 National Historic Landmark
The summer retreat of coal magnate Edward Berwind and his wife Herminie, The Elms was a thoroughly “modern” house in 1901. So technologically advanced for its time it appeared to work “as if by magic,” it also houses monumental art works, including wall-sized Venetian paintings, Chinese lacquer panels and tapestries. Edward J. Berwind, c. 1930

The Breakers is a surviving jewel of the New York Central Railroad fortune, making a statement about the global sensibilities of the Vanderbilt family. The 70-room summer estate of Cornelius Vanderbilt II includes a two and a half story high Great Hall and a Morning Room adorned with platinum leaf wall panels. Its interiors feature rare marble, alabaster, and gilded woods throughout.

Pass through the front door of Hunter House and you step back into Newport’s 18th century Golden Age, the era before the American Revolution. It was the home of a merchant, ship owner and colonial deputy, which later became the Revolutionary War headquarters of the French Navy. You’ll see up close a great collection of exquisite colonial furniture, created by legendary Newport craftsmen like the Townsends and Goddards.
...can you walk through centuries of American life in an afternoon. Each house you visit is an authentic icon of one of the great eras of American history. Hunter House was here when the Battle of Bunker Hill was fought; Chateau-sur-Mer saw the age of global commerce by American clipper ships like Flying Cloud; and The Breakers opened as the Vanderbilts’ latest achievement in the era in which railroads revolutionized the nation much the way jetliners and the internet would a century later.

Toronto Visitor
A product of the American-China Trade and one of America’s great Victorian houses, Chateau-sur-Mer was home to three generations of the Wetmore family. You’ll see hand-carved Italian woodwork, Chinese porcelains, Egyptian and Japanese Revival stenciled wallpapers, and rare trees from as far away as Mongolia.

Higlights From The Collection: 20th-Century March 16 - November 26From the avant-garde of the roaring ‘20s to the minimalism of the ‘60s and ‘70s, the costume exhibition will highlight designer pieces by Chanel, Givenchy and Halston.
The newest Newport Mansions audio tour brings Rosecliff’s history and romance to life with never-before-told stories and first person remem-brances of its colorful families. From Tessie Oelrichs, who built this fantasy in terra cotta, to the Monroes of New Orleans, the last family to call Rosecliff home, you’ll discover the very human story of Newport’s great party house.

Created by Alva Vanderbilt and Richard Morris Hunt and inspired by the Petit Trianon at Versailles, Marble House contains 500,000 cubic feet of marble. Intended as an ultimate statement of Gilded Age privilege, only a few years later it hosted Alva’s “Votes for Women” rallies on the back lawn. Hear the words of Alva Vanderbilt, her daughter Consuelo and many more, brought to life in the award-winning audio tour.

Open Daily Feb. 15
Built in 1841 for Georgia plantation owner George Noble Jones and rebuilt for the King family in 1881, Kingscote still possesses original rooms from each era. At the center is one of America’s greatest dining rooms, with Tiffany glass and a unique cork ceiling. Its furnishings reflect the King family’s success as China Trade merchants, with rare furniture, silver collections, and Chinese decorative arts.
kingsCoTe 1841 National Historic Landmark
The Isaac Bell House is a masterpiece of the American Shingle-Style featuring Arts and Crafts interiors, Japanese-inspired columns, and a sweeping open floor plan. Together with Kingscote, these two picturesque cottages illustrate Newport’s evolution as a premier place for great design, fine living, and the creation of a distinctly American style of architecture. Both houses came from the design genius of McKim, Mead and White.
ChepsTow 1861
This charming Italianate-style cottage was designed by Newport architect George Champlin Mason. Today it reflects the mid-20th century style of its last owner, Alletta Morris McBean, a descendant of Lewis Morris III, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. The house contains original family furnishings, and a collection of important 19th century American paintings, including Hudson River landscapes.

For 68 years, The Preservation Society of Newport County has brought America’s heritage to life. In 1945, a group of visionaries founded the Preservation Society to save Newport’s internationally-significant architecture from the wrecking ball and neglect. That work continues today.
The Preservation Society of Newport County is a private, non-profit, member-supported organization, accredited by the American Alliance of Museums. More than 30 million visitors have passed through the magnif-icent gates and gardens of our properties, coming from every U.S. state and from around the world.
Your memberships, visits to the houses, purchases in our Newport Mansions Stores and donations are the lifeblood of the Preservation Society. By visiting us, you are making your own investment in preserving our heritage. Your support makes it possible for us to maintain these properties—seven of them recognized as National Historic Landmarks—so that they can continue to be enjoyed by many generations to come.
The preservation of these historic structures is a never-ending labor of love for all of the Preservation Society’s employees, because we believe in the vision of our founders. We thank you for making it possible for us to fulfill that vision.

Risk management is a critical piece of the protection of any great property, whether it is decades old or centuries old. The Preservation Society has turned to one of the nation’s most trusted and experienced insurance firms, National Trust Insurance Services. They provide comprehensive risk assessments of our properties and insurance solutions which are
annually evaluated and revised to minimize threats to these incredible national treasures.
