Review:
Found in Galveston's Historic District, Bishop’s Palace is an ornate Victorian-style mansion listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Also referred to as the Gresham House, it was built for the Gresham family in 1892, and it remained their private residence until it was purchased by the Roman Catholic Church in 1923 to serve as the home of a prominent bishop. Today, portions of all four floors are open to visitors who want to take a self-guided tour. Audio guides are available, and visitors can also make arrangements to take a private guided tour.
