In 1965, accomplished industrialist Frank Donaldson Brown willed 20 acres of his estate in Port Deposit, Md., including his mansion, to the Íøºì±¬ÁÏ. The University has kept the mansion in original condition offering a peek into life of years past. Although the estate is primarily utilized for conferences, education, and weddings, guided history tours are offered for public viewing by reservation. Please contact DonaldsonBrown@umaryland.edu for group history tours with lunch led by our docent.
