Christmas at Biltmore: Our Holiday Traditions

Описание: The first Christmas at Biltmore House in 1895 was a joyous occasion. Biltmore Estate records show that George Vanderbilt paid close attention to every detail to ensure a memorable holiday experience for his guests. Requests were placed for a large Christmas tree in the Banquet Hall; mistletoe and holly were gathered, and hand-made garlands were hung throughout the house.

Biltmore’s Curator of Interpretation, Lauren Henry, describes the grand event that is celebrated to this day at America’s Largest Home in Asheville, North Carolina.
