Experience History through the Heritage of Frank D. Yuengling
Our Space
In 1913, Frank D. Yuengling—third president of America’s oldest brewery—commissioned architect Harry Maurer to design this grand Tudor-Jacobethan Revival home for his family at 1440 Mahantongo Street. The Historic Yuengling Mansion offers 3,762 square feet of beautifully preserved historic architecture. The interior boasts breathtaking woodwork, original hardwood floors, fireplaces, and classic elegance, creating an ambiance that is both inviting and sophisticated. Large windows fill the rooms with natural light, highlighting the craftsmanship and timeless character throughout the home.
The entire Yuengling estate spans 1.7 acres and also includes an 833-square-foot Carriage House tucked at the rear of the property. The surrounding grounds, gardens, and charming architectural details provide equally stunning backdrops, making the mansion a one-of-a-kind setting for gatherings, celebrations, and creative experiences alike.
