Richards DAR House, Renaissance Revival mansion in Mobile, United States
The Richards DAR House contains ornate details throughout its structure, including decorative moldings, rusticated masonry, and symmetrical window arrangements on its facade.
Built in 1895 for Captain Charles Richards, this residence later became property of the Daughters of the American Revolution organization in 1953.
The mansion represents the architectural preferences of wealthy 19th-century Mobile merchants who embraced European design influences in their residential buildings.
Visitors can explore the mansion through guided tours that showcase period furniture, architectural elements, and historical artifacts from Mobile's past.
The building's iron lacework includes four maiden statues at the front veranda, each holding a different musical instrument from the 19th century.
