Christian Heurich House Museum [DC]

Visitor to this Victorian mansion can step back into family life in Washington at the turn of the century. The Victorian interior decorations and furnishings remain largely unchanged since it was built in the late 19th century. Looking very much like a medieval castle, this 31-room mansion was designed by John Granville Myers for local brewer Christian Heurich, between 1894–1896. The interior is predominately Renaissance and Rococo Revival.

The house offers tours.
