The beautifully-restored Historic Governors’ Mansion in Cheyenne was built in 1904, fourteen years after Wyoming achieved statehood in 1890. Designed to be a gracious, comfortable home, it was built in Colonial Revival-style, and is a two and a half story house with a full basement and a separate carriage house. It was used by state governors from 1905-1976, and is now a historic house museum. The Governors’ Mansion is wheelchair accessible, and guided group tours are available by appointment. Rooms are decorated in the style of several different periods, with music of each era playing in the various rooms. A trip highlight is the fallout shelter, built during the Cold War era.
