San Jose

Beautiful historic mansion owned by Sarah Winchester owner of the Winchester rifle. Many believe the house to be haunted by the souls who was killed from the Winchester rifle. House is well maintained but some of its structures was destroyed from the earthquake. Still it’s a beautiful place to check out if you are in the area. #history #travel

The mansion was once owned by Sarah Winchester, the widow of firearms William Wirt Winchester.  The Queen Ann Style Victorian mansion is renowned for it's size, it's architecual curiosities and it's lack of any master building plan.  Under her day-to-day guidance, it's "from-the-grounds-up" construction  proceeded, by some  accounts, non-stop 24/7 for 38 years until her death in 1922 at which time construction ceased.

Winchester Mystery House now has two different tours. I recommend the ‘Explore More’ tour if you’ve already experienced the main tour. They take you into places the regular tour doesn’t go.
