Meadow Brook Hall is a Tudor Revival mansion in Rochester Hills, Michigan, built between 1926 and 1929 by Matilda Dodge Wilson, heiress to the Dodge automobile fortune, and her second husband, Alfred Wilson, a lumber baron. Spanning 88,000 square feet with 110 rooms, it ranks as the fourth largest historic mansion museum in the United States. The estate was donated to Michigan in 1957 to establish what became Oakland University. Designated a National Historic Landmark in 2012, the structure exemplifies the grand residential ambitions of America's early twentieth-century industrial elite.
