Peel Mansion Museum & Heritage Gardens
Peel Mansion
An Italianate villa built in 1875 that showcases 19th-century life in Northwest Arkansas and traditional flower gardening.
The mansion was built by Colonel Samuel Peel, a Civil War veteran who later served in Congress. Its brick towers and porches are well preserved, and the interior recreates Victorian-era furnishings. The garden grows old-fashioned roses and local traditional plants. Admission is inexpensive. The mansion is open Tuesday through Saturday, and guided tours last about 45 minutes. It is about 1.5 km from downtown and suits visitors interested in local history and gardens.
