Locations: Mansions, Estates & Prominent Buildings

Did you know that at the end of the 1880s Helena, Montana was home to more millionaires per capita than anywhere else in the world? The gold rush had brought hundreds of thousands to the region and the rich deposits of copper led to a wealthy population. Today, this wealth can be seen through the architecture of the region. Many of these mansions and estates are privately owned and some have been converted to bed & breakfasts.
