The Breakers is Newport’s most iconic and visited mansion. Completed in 1895 for Cornelius Vanderbilt II, this National Historic Landmark is a 70-room Italian Renaissance-style palazzo filled with marble, gold leaf, rare woods, and breathtaking ocean views. Guided tours take you through the grand hall, formal rooms, upper bedrooms, and the children’s playhouse. Audio tours and special behind-the-scenes options are available. The mansion beautifully illustrates the extravagant lifestyle of America’s wealthiest families during the Gilded Age. Located right along the Cliff Walk, it pairs perfectly with a coastal walk for the ultimate Newport experience.
