Salisbury House & Gardens is a historic house museum in Des Moines, Iowa, featuring a 42-room Tudor estate set among nine acres of gardens and woodlands. Built between 1923 and 1928 by Carl and Edith Weeks, the house showcases 15th- and 16th-century British-inspired interiors, along with a collection that includes works by notable artists and historical books and documents from figures such as Abraham Lincoln and Ernest Hemingway. The institution preserves most of the Weeks’ original furnishings and collections, emphasizing cultural and historical objects as a means to illuminate broader histories rather than display ostentation. Its mission centers on maintaining a distinguished assemblage of art, artifacts, and architecture, offering visitors a tangible link to early 20th-century collecting and European-inspired design. Based in Des Moines, Salisbury House & Gardens operates as a small, dedicated cultural institution within the museums, historical sites, and gardens sector, and has pursued public programming and events that engage the community with its historic estate and collections, including recent activity around centennial celebrations and community events.
