About The Copper King Mansion
William A. Clark was among the most powerful, richest and influential people in the late 1800s and early 1900s. He made a fortune with smelters, electric power companies, newspapers, railroads and mining. He settled in Butte, Montana and is known as one of the three "Copper Kings".
W. A. Clark began construction on the mansion in 1884 and it was completed in 1888. Construction was under the direction of architect - D. T. McDevitt, and the woodwork accomplished by the W. F. Beall & Co. out of Chicago. Most of the materials for the home were imported at a cost of around $260,000. The majority of the home is in the original condition from 1888. You will see frescoed ceilings, stained glass windows, hand combed plaster walls, and gas & electric chandeliers. The tour takes approximately one hour and is truly exceptional.
