The home of the Henry Clay Frick family from 1882–1905, this meticulously restored 22-room mansion represents the lifestyle of a prominent, wealthy family living in Pittsburgh during the Gilded Age, a period of immense change that shaped the creation of the modern United States. 

The Frick Art Museum opened in 1970 to house Helen Clay Frick’s personal collection of fine and decorative arts, with outstanding examples of early-Renaissance Sienese painting and 18th-century French painting, furniture, and decorative arts.

Go bard as The Frick and Carnegie Mellon team up to present not one, but two once-in-a-century exhibitions!

The path that winds through the Frick’s 10-acre site is lined with lush gardens and a diverse selection of trees. Our active greenhouse is a renovation and partial reconstruction of one that served the Frick family from 1897 through the 1970s.
