"The Gilded Age" highlights Oheka Castle, a 1919 mansion built by financier Otto Hermann Kahn, emblematic of affluent lifestyles. Once a hub for extravagant soirées akin to those depicted in "The Great Gatsby," the castle faced neglect after Kahn's death, leading to its decline. After a significant $40 million restoration by Gary Melius, Oheka Castle has transformed into a lavish venue for events. Today, it stands as the second-largest private residence in the U.S., drawing visitors for its beauty and historical allure, alongside tours that offer insights into its past.
The grandeur of Oheka Castle transports visitors back to the opulence of the Gilded Age, showcasing the lifestyle of the affluent through its lavish architecture and historical significance.
Visiting Oheka is like taking a step into a bygone era, where the past intertwines with present-day luxury, reshaping our understanding of the Roaring Twenties.
