Knox Mansion, Renaissance mansion in Buffalo, United States.

The Knox Mansion contains 25 rooms spread across multiple floors, featuring marble staircases, ornate fireplaces, and spacious gathering areas in French Renaissance style.

Construction of this residence began in 1915 for Seymour H. Knox, co-founder of Woolworth and Knox department stores, at a cost of $600,000.

The mansion reflects the period when wealthy merchants built grand residences on Delaware Avenue, transforming Buffalo into a center of commerce and architecture.

Free guided tours operate every weekend starting at 10:00 AM, lasting approximately 90 minutes and requiring visitors to navigate multiple stairwells.

The building houses a marble fireplace in the library, gardens with seasonal changes, and special architectural details designed by Charles Pierrepont Gilbert.
