Nemours Estate is a French-style mansion surrounded by the largest formal gardens in North America. It has fountains, statues, and long green lawns fit for a fairy tale.
It is famous for its sparkling fountains and a mansion filled with fancy old rooms and cars. Visitors love strolling the wide gardens that look like a European palace.
The gardens stretch out with fountains, golden statues, and a long reflecting pool. Kids can wander wide paths and count the many splashing water jets.
Inside are elegant rooms, chandeliers, and antique cars kept in a garage. A guided tour shows how one of Delaware's richest families lived.
Spring and summer are the prettiest times when flowers bloom and fountains run. The estate is open on warm months, so a sunny day is ideal for a visit.
