Publisher Info

  • Clay Faulkner lived up to his 1896 promise of a grand mansion for his family, but by the 1940s it had been converted into a hospital and nursing home. The Faulkner Springs Sanitarium and Hospital was a well-loved, efficient medical facility, but their additions and alterations disguised the beauty of the mansion. Closed in 1968, the building was boarded up and abandoned for years. A restoration begun in 1989 brought the building back to its original elegance, and its doors were opened to the public in 1993. Popular demand led to the addition of an elegant Victorian Carriage House events facility in 1998, a Visitor's Center in 1999 complete with a unique Victorian Gift Shop and a tea room for lunch and small events, and extensive gardens that reflect the bounty of McMinnville, "the nursery capital of the world." In 2001, a unique form of history based entertainment for motorcoach groups was introduced with the permiere performance of "Murder at the Mansion."
