The Vaile Mansion, built in 1881 by Colonel and Mrs. Harvey Vaile, is a stunning example of 19th-century grandeur. Once described by the Kansas City Times as “the most princely house and the most comfortable home in the entire west,” it remains a cherished historic gem.
Located a mile north of the Independence Square, the three-story Gothic-style mansion is a striking sight. Its towering structure stands in beautiful contrast to the modest Midwestern homes surrounding it.
Restored to its former glory, the Vaile Mansion invites visitors to step back in time.
Guided tours offer a chance to admire the exquisite craftsmanship and hear fascinating stories of its past.
For history buffs and architecture lovers, this unique treasure is a must-see.
