Mayslake Hall was built between 1919 and 1921 by Francis Stuyvesant Peabody, a national figure in the coal industry. Later in the century, the Franciscan Order of Friars Minor used the estate as a center for religious growth. Today, it is on the National Register of Historic Places and stands as a unique cultural resource for the community offering special events, classes, art exhibits and tours.
