Historic Governor's Mansion

Historic Governor's Mansion

This Colonial Revival Executive Mansion served as home to Wyoming’s Governors and their families for 71 years, (1905 to 1976). The history embodied in this mansion brings to life the people who served the State of Wyoming and the Nation from this location. Perhaps the greatest distinction of the home is that in 1925 it was the first in the United States to be occupied by a woman governor, Nellie Tayloe Ross.
