We are in for a special treat!
Step back in time and travel up the coast with us to learn about pioneering architect Julia Morgan and her extraordinary creation for a virtual docent-led tour of Hearst Castle.
In early 1919, media mogul William Randolph Hearst approached Morgan with a proposal to build a simple "bungalow" on a remote hill in the Santa Lucia Mountains. That modest idea blossomed into a legendary 28-year collaboration, resulting in the iconic four-story Hearst Castle. Perched 1,600 feet above the Pacific Ocean, this California State Park remains an engineering and architectural marvel—and a lasting legacy of California's first licensed female architect.
