HBO热播剧《镀金时代》以19世纪末20世纪初的美国为背景,剧集大量取景于历史悠久的豪宅,展现了那个时代上流社会的奢华生活。这些豪宅大多位于罗德岛州纽波特和纽约州塔里敦等地,曾属于范德比尔特家族等显赫人物。如今,这些豪宅向公众开放,游客可以亲身体验“镀金时代”的辉煌,感受当时的财富与权力。

🏰 **Rosecliff:** 这座位于纽波特的豪宅,仿照凡尔赛宫的特里亚农宫建造,拥有纽波特最大的私人舞厅。剧集中,舞厅的场景经常出现,包括开场片段。它还曾是《了不起的盖茨比》等电影的拍摄地。

🚢 **The Breakers:** 范德比尔特家族的夏季别墅,占地138,300平方英尺。在剧中,音乐室和台球室等多个房间被用作拍摄场景。台球室的照明设备非常重,需要固定在建筑结构上。

💎 **Marble House:** 这座豪宅是威廉·范德比尔特送给妻子的生日礼物,以其内部的50万立方英尺的大理石而闻名。剧集中,乔治·罗素的卧室场景就取景于这里。

🌳 **Chateau-sur-Mer:** 这座豪宅在剧中是玛米·菲什的家,剧中的楼梯厅和餐厅都曾出现。楼梯厅的墙壁上绘有生命之树,餐厅的墙壁则装饰着覆有银色西班牙皮革的墙纸。

🏡 **The Elms:** 埃尔姆斯豪宅是根据18世纪的法国城堡设计的。在剧中,莎拉·赫米妮·伯温德的卧室被用作格拉迪斯·罗素的房间,而主厨房则被用作罗素一家的厨房。

If you weren't an heiress, coal magnate, or railroad tycoon, you probably wouldn't have made the guest list at Gilded Age parties. Those gatherings were reserved for the wealthiest, most powerful members of society at the turn of the 20th century.

However, visitors of all economic brackets can visit many of the historic opulent estates that serve as film sets for HBO's show "The Gilded Age."

The show shoots at real mansions from the time period, many of which are now museums, to create authentic portrayals of the characters' exorbitant wealth.

Season three of "The Gilded Age" premieres June 22 on HBO.

Here are 11 Gilded Age mansions where the show filmed that offer tours of their magnificent properties.

Rosecliff, a 30-room mansion in Newport, Rhode Island, was modeled after King Louis XIV's Grand Trianon palace in Versailles.

Theresa "Tessie" Fair Oelrichs, whose family's silver fortune earned her the nickname "Bonanza Heiress," built Rosecliff in 1902 as her summer home.

Admission to tours of the 28,800-square-foot property can be purchased through the Preservation Society of Newport County.

Fans of "The Gilded Age" will recognize the ceiling of Rosecliff's ballroom from the show's opening credits.

Rosecliff features the largest private ballroom in Newport, measuring 40 feet by 80 feet. Scenes from "The Great Gatsby," "27 Dresses," and "Amistad" have also been filmed there.

One of the grandest Gilded Age mansions in Newport, the Breakers spans 138,300 square feet and belonged to one of the era's wealthiest families.
The Breakers.

Cornelius Vanderbilt II, heir to his grandfather's railroad fortune, built the Breakers as a summer home in 1895. The name "Breakers" comes from the sound of waves breaking against the shores of the Newport property.

The Preservation Society of Newport County manages the mansion as a museum. Tours can be booked online.

Several rooms in the Breakers were used as film sets for "The Gilded Age," including the music room and the billiard room.
The Music Room.

The billiard room features a wrought-iron and bronze lighting fixture so heavy that it had to be attached to the structural beams of the home. In a scene in "The Gilded Age," George Russell played a game of billiards in the room after a dinner party.

The music room also served as a film set for "The Gilded Age," appearing as the Russells' ballroom where they hosted Gladys' debut ball at the end of season one.

Marble House in Newport was a 39th birthday present from William K. Vanderbilt to his then-wife, Alva, in 1892.
Marble House.

Marble House is named for the 500,000 cubic feet of marble featured throughout the home.

When Alva Vanderbilt divorced her husband in 1895, she maintained ownership of Marble House and custody of their three children. She then married one of her neighbors, Oliver H.P. Belmont, in 1896, and became Alva Belmont. After his death, she leveraged her fortune to fund causes in the women's suffrage movement and hosted suffrage conventions at Marble House.

The Preservation Society of Newport County operates tours of the property.

In "The Gilded Age," scenes in George Russell's bedroom are filmed in the room that belonged to Alva and William's daughter, Consuelo Vanderbilt.

Consuelo Vanderbilt wrote that her mother had "forbidden the intrusion of my personal possessions" in her bedroom, according to the Marble House audio tour.

Chateau-sur-Mer in Newport was originally built by merchant William Shepard Wetmore in 1852, then remodeled by his son in the 1870s.

George Wetmore, who inherited the Italianate-style villa when his father died in 1862, served as the governor of Rhode Island and as a US senator representing the state.

Tours of the home are available through the Preservation Society of Newport County.

Rooms at Chateau-sur-Mer that appear in "The Gilded Age" include the stair hall and the dining room.
The Stair Hall.

Chateau-sur-Mer appears in the show as the home of Mamie Fish, who hosted a doll tea party in the first season.

The stair hall is painted with the biblical Tree of Life, and the dining room walls are decorated with wallpaper made of Spanish leather covered in silver.

Gilded Age coal magnate Edward Julius Berwind and his wife, Sarah Herminie Berwind, built The Elms in Newport in 1901.

The Elms was modeled after the 18th-century French château, Château d'Asnières, and furnished with custom Louis XV-style furniture. The mansion sits on a 10-acre estate, where the Berwinds used to host lavish parties.

Sarah Herminie Berwind's bedroom appears as Gladys Russell's room in "The Gilded Age," and the main kitchen serves as the Russell family's kitchen where servants gossip and prepare meals.

Lyndhurst Mansion in Tarrytown, New York, was owned by three prominent Gilded Age families: the Pauldings, the Merritts, and the Goulds.

Former New York City Mayor William Paulding and his wife, real-estate heiress Maria Rhinelander Paulding, built the mansion in 1842. Merchant George Merritt bought Lyndhurst Mansion in 1864 and built an addition onto the home, doubling its square footage to 14,000 square feet. Railroad tycoon Jay Gould then purchased it in 1880.

Tours are available to book on Lyndhurst Mansion's website.

In the world of "The Gilded Age," the mansion is home to the characters of Charles and Aurora Fane.

"The Gilded Age" has filmed scenes in Lyndhurst Mansion's parlor, dining room, and art gallery.

The show also uses the mansion's carriage house as the offices of The New York Globe newspaper and its 67-acre grounds as a stand-in for Central Park.

The Hempstead House at Sands Point Preserve on Long Island was built in 1912 by financier Howard Gould.
Hempstead House.

Howard Gould, son of the aforementioned Jay Gould, only lived at Hempstead House for a few years before selling it to Daniel and Florence Guggenheim in 1917.

Daniel was the brother of Solomon Guggenheim, for whom the Manhattan museum is named, and Benjamin Guggenheim, who died on the Titanic.

Hempstead House is located within Sands Point Preserve, which is open to the public and contains three mansions that can be toured. Tickets for a guided tour of Hempstead House can be purchased at the park's welcome center.

You may recognize this room as George Russell's office.
The library at Hempstead House.

George Russell conducted many of his business dealings in this room at Hempstead House, now the home's library.

"The Gilded Age" isn't the only project to have filmed here. You may also have seen Hempstead House in "Malcolm X," the 1998 adaptation of "Great Expectations," or "Scent of a Woman."

Hunter House was originally built in 1748.

Hunter House actually dates back to the colonial times, generations before the Gilded Age began. It even played a role in the Revolutionary War as the headquarters for the French fleet, per The Preservation Society of Newport County.

Keeping Hunter House in good shape led to the creation of the Preservation Society in 1945, per the Society's website.

There are guided tours held daily (excluding Sundays and Mondays) from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

On the show, one of the sitting rooms is used as lawyer Tom Raikes' office.

In the show, Raikes' office is in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. It's one of the first non-New York City locations we see on the show.

Belcourt was built in 1894 for the socialite Oliver Hazard Perry Belmont in Rhode Island.
Belcourt.

This 50,000-square-feet, 60-room summer home was modeled after King Louis XIII's hunting lodge at Versailles.

The property was known for its extensive stables and carriage space, which makes sense: You may recognize his last name from the Belmont Stakes, the annual horse race in Elmont, New York, that was named for his father, August Belmont Sr.

Belcourt is open for both guided tours during the day and candlelight walks and ghost tours in the evenings.

The property doubles as the summer home of the Astors on "The Gilded Age."

In a memorable moment in season one, Bertha Russell (Carrie Coon) ends up sneaking around Belcourt (Beechwood, in the show) to avoid a run-in with Mrs. Astor.

Westbrook, home of New York attorney and real-estate developer William Bayard Cutting, is located in Oakdale, New York.
Westbrook.

Westbrook was built in 1886 in the Tudor Revival style. Inside, there are 60 rooms (and 20 fireplaces).

Westbrook's main draw, though, is its gardens. The house is now located inside the Bayard Cutting Arboretum State Park, which is home to 691 acres of plants, trails, and more.

There are separate guided tours of the arboretum and Westbrook available seasonally. There's also the Hidden Oak Café, which is located inside Westbrook and offers the option to take "Victorian Tea," complete sandwiches, scones, and tea.

It was used during season one of the show.

The Cuttings were part of the famed "Four Hundred" list, which was published by The New York Times in the 1890s. It named the 400 most socially acceptable people living in New York City.

So, even though only their house has popped up on the show, the real Cutting family could too.

The Glenview Mansion was built in the 1870s in Yonkers, a city in Westchester County, New York.

It was built for the financier John Bond Trevor, who was partners with James Boorman Colgate (yes, of those Colgates).

After the Trevors sold the home to the city of Yonkers, it became part of the Hudson River Museum, which is still open today.

The interior of Glenview was used as the interior of Mrs. Astor's home.

The entry staircase at Glenview has appeared multiple times throughout the show.
