Description

Whether you’ve visited the Rothschild House or are new to its history, this is a chance to go a little deeper. Join us on Wednesday, July 22 at the Cotton Building for an intimate look at the family who lived there for nearly 90 years.

 

Built in 1868 and preserved with remarkable care, the Rothschild House offers a rare glimpse into everyday life at the turn of the century. Nearly everything inside belonged to the family, from furniture and keepsakes to small traces of daily living that remain throughout the house.

 

Through stories, objects, and personal details, we’ll bring the Rothschilds into focus, offering a more personal way of understanding one of Port Townsend’s most familiar historic homes.
