Revitalization Project

The Van Horn Mansion is a living history museum and event center, first built as a home by the Van Horn Family in 1823. It’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is a cultural and historical centerpiece for the Town of Newfane, NY. 

In honor of the estate’s 200th birthday, the estate will undergo a variety of necessary enhancements in order to refresh the property and help keep it a mainstay attraction of the Newfane community.

Special thanks to those who have already supported our efforts! Some projects completed or underway include:

• Repairs to the roof and skylight area
• Reworking the estate's landscaping
• Repairs, cleaning, and painting the Lower Veranda
• Updates to a few indoor displays
• reorganizing the broom closet and kitchen
