One of Butte, Montana’s Historic Homes
321 W. Broadway. Millionaire and Senator William Andrews Clark built this house for his son Charles who wrote an elaborate description of a French chateau that he stayed in on his honeymoon. The house has 26 rooms, including a ballroom on the fourth floor, and seven fireplaces. The windows are stained glass and the walls are covered with hand-painted wallpaper. French craftsmen were brought to Butte to work on the walls, ceilings, and paneling. The Mahogany staircase was carved in place. The home now serves as a public museum and community art center called The Arts Chateau.
