Devon House, National monument and heritage center in Kingston, Jamaica.

Devon House features a grand colonial mansion set within expansive grounds, combining both Caribbean and Georgian architectural elements throughout its construction.

George Stiebel, Jamaica's first black millionaire who made his fortune in gold mining, built this remarkable residence in 1881 at the notable Millionaire's Corner.

The mansion interior displays a collection of 19th-century pieces, including Jamaican, English, and French antiques arranged in traditional colonial style rooms.

The property contains multiple dining establishments, craft shops, and the Devon House I-Scream parlor, with guided tours available in English and German.

The mansion's attic conceals a hidden gambling room, while the entrance hall features painted palm trees and special chairs designed for sword-wearing gentlemen.
