Linden Place Mansion is a stunning Federal-style mansion in Bristol that was originally constructed in 1810 by slave trader General George DeWolf. The mansion, which was designed by architect Russell Warren, is considered to be one of the best preserved examples of Federal architecture in New England, showcasing gorgeous Palladian windows and fluted Corinthian columns that were inspired by the architecture of ancient Greece. Other design elements of note include a Gothic conservatory and a four-story spiral staircase. Visitors can explore the mansion as part of guided tours and hear tales of the DeWolf family's legacy in the Rhode Island region, including its connection to famed actress Ethel Barrymore. Outside, 1.8 acres of beautifully-landscaped gardens showcase Greek bronze statues and a preserved 18th-century gazebo.
