Bragg-Mitchell Mansion
Bragg–Mitchell Mansion
An 1855 Greek Revival antebellum mansion, with an avenue of ancient live oaks in the front yard and striking white columns.
The Bragg–Mitchell Mansion was built in 1855 and is one of Mobile's most magnificent antebellum Southern mansions. Its thirteen white Corinthian columns and the century-old live oaks in the front yard form a striking scene, and it is often used as a wedding venue and film location. Guided tours show 19th-century furniture, chandeliers and artworks. Admission is charged. Opening days are limited, and the mansion is often closed for events, so check the website in advance. It is located on Spring Hill Avenue, about 5 km from downtown.
Opening hours
Tue–Fri 10:00 am–4:00 pm (check the official website)
