Joslyn Castle & Gardens serves as a physical reminder of the immense philanthropic legacies of its original residents, George and Sarah Joslyn. The Joslyns believed, “the possession of great wealth is a great trust and obligation.” 

Today, Joslyn Castle & Gardens serves as a 501©3 non-profit organization with a mandate to model the Joslyns’ spirit of hospitality and inclusion. We strive to maintain a dynamic campus keeping history alive and relevant, and our stunning historic architecture and grounds strong.

As stewards of their home and their legacies, Joslyn Castle & Gardens provides opportunities for our modern community to connect with our founders through historical, educational, and cultural programming for the community. Our programming calendar offers unique engagements with theater, art, history, nature, music, architecture, literature, and more. 

In addition to cultural programming, Joslyn Castle & Gardens offers regularly scheduled public tours, rental opportunities for private and business events, and a free public green space in the heart of Midtown Omaha.
