Florida Historic Places - Henry Morrison Flagler Museum
Whitehall was built in 1900 for Henry Flagler, cofounder of Standard Oil, and his third wife Mary Lily Kenan.

The mansion is built around a large open-air central courtyard and is modeled after palaces in Spain and Italy. Three stories tall with several wings, the mansion has fifty-five fully restored rooms furnished with period pieces.
