During these hour-long, guided tours of the interior, exterior, and beautiful gardens, we’ll explore the rich history of the Frank H. Buhl mansion, built in 1891 as a wedding gift from industrialist and philanthropist Frank Buhl to his wife Julia. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Special thanks to Laura Ackley, Donna Winner, and Karen Winner Sed for their extreme generosity and support of the Sharon Historical Society.
