THE STORY OF WHITEHALL MUSEUM

This season, Flagler Museum’s fall exhibit, running until the end of the year, tells the story of Whitehall . Celebrating 120 years, Henry Flagler’s Gilded Age estate - Whitehall is recognized as a one-of-a-kind private dwelling and received the distinction of a National Historic Landmark. Originally built as a wedding gift for his wife, Henry & Mary Flagler used this estate as a winter escape, long before Palm Beach was a town, establishing what we know, today, as “season” in Palm Beach. Since that time, the 75-room, 100,000 square-foot mansion, has been transformed to a club, hotel and currently, a museum. On the PBTV Watch Party series, available on YouTube, you can get an inside look at the fully restored Whitehall, which has over 100,000 yearly visitors.
