Self-Guided Tour of Fulton Mansion - May 19-25
Rising above Aransas Bay and surrounded by stately live oaks, Fulton Mansion State Historic Site is located in the resort area of Rockport-Fulton. The house must have appeared incredible in 1877, as it does today, with its mansard roof and ornate trim. Learn about George Fulton’s engineering skills, take a walk through a garden inspired by Harriet Fulton’s love of flowers, and hear stories of living in a grand Victorian villa.
