Step into the Gilded Age and explore the well-preserved Maymont Mansion at your own pace, with an optional narrated audio tour included. 

Discover rooms filled with fine art, decorative objects and furnishings collected by James and Sallie Dooley during their world travels. Explore the formal rooms of the main floor, where the Dooleys hosted elaborate dinners and soirées, then climb the stairs beside the Tiffany stained-glass window to visit the family’s private spaces, including the Swan Bedroom and Morning Room. 

Continue belowstairs to “In Domestic Service,” an exhibition in restored period rooms that explores the daily lives and work of the Dooleys’ domestic staff, most of whom were African American. Through furnishings, interpretation and the audio guide, learn more about the relationships between server and served, working class and upper class during the Jim Crow era.
