Built in 1903, the stunning private home of George and Sarah Joslyn is open for group tours. The Joslyn Castle is a premier historic landmark located in Omaha’s Gold Coast in the heart of midtown. The Scottish Baronial style mansion was designed by John McDonald, one of Omaha’s most prominent architects in the early 1900s. The Castle was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, and designated a local landmark in 1979.
