Al Ringling Mansion

Get a glimpse of the opulent life of one of America's greatest showmen with a tour of the Al Ringling Mansion! This spectacular red stone mansion was built in 1905 as the home of legendary circus showman, Al Ringling. Al was the eldest of the five famous Ringling brothers of The Ringling Bros. Circus, which was at its peak when the mansion was built. The mansion is currently undergoing extensive restoration to bring it back to its former opulence and will soon feature five guest rooms, but it is still open for guided tours. Guests will see original furnishings, amazing hand-carved woodwork, leaded glass, ornate murals, and hand-decorated ceilings. Displays on the Mansion and the lives of the Ringling family are also featured. A special combination ticket is available for all five major attractions in Baraboo!
