AL. Ringling Mansion

AL. Ringling Mansion This historic, Romanesque Revival mansion was built in 1905-1906 for AL. Ringling. AL. In 2013, we decided to open the mansion to the public. Last tour is at 3pm.

Ringling built his home in Baraboo when his family’s circus was at its peak. Some visit this historic site to take in the beautiful, Edwardian architecture, while others want to learn more about one of America’s most famous showmen. In order to keep the Ringling legacy alive, we have hosted grand parties and weddings for people from all over the country, and are looking forward to opening the AL.

Ringling Brewing Company in 2019! But it doesn’t matter if you’re here for a tour or an event because on every visit you’ll be met with the kind and quirky enthusiasm you’d expect from a place this unique.
