Why you should go…

Taliesin is the home and studio Frank Lloyd Wright began building in 1911 on a hill south of Spring Green, rebuilding it after fires in 1914 and 1925. Tours start at the Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center, where a shuttle takes you up to the estate. The guided House Tour covers Wright's home, while longer tours add Hillside and the estate's other major buildings. Wright designed Fallingwater and the Guggenheim here, and the estate became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019.
