Bowers Mansion, Victorian mansion in New Washoe City, Nevada.
The granite and sandstone mansion features double-arched French doors, a wraparound veranda, and an octagonal cupola atop the hipped roof.
Constructed in 1863 by mining millionaires Lemuel and Eilley Bowers, the mansion cost $300,000 to build during the Comstock Lode period.
The mansion contains period furniture donated by 500 Nevada families, representing the domestic life of 19th-century mining aristocracy.
The mansion opens for guided tours during summer and autumn months as part of Bowers Mansion Regional Park, located 20 miles south of Reno.
A geothermal spring on the property continues to supply hot water for the park facilities, with its original pool now serving as an irrigation pond.
