Rothschild family residences
The Rothschild family residences are palaces, castles and houses which are, or were, occupied by members of the Rothschild family in Europe.
History
The Rothschild family originated from Frankfurt. The family rose to prominence with Mayer Amschel Rothschild, who established his banking business in the 1760s.[1] Rothschild was able to establish an international banking family through his five sons,[2] who established businesses in Paris, Frankfurt, London, Vienna, and Naples. The family was elevated to noble rank in the Holy Roman Empire and the United Kingdom.[3][4]
The family used their extraordinary wealth, considered the largest private fortune in the world,[5][6][7] to acquire businesses in a diverse range of fields, including financial services, real estate, mining, energy, agriculture, winemaking.[8][9] They also built or acquired a number of palaces, castles and houses throughout Europe, many of which remain standing today. In England, they owned a number of country seats in the home counties.[10]
The Rothschild style, known as le goût Rothschild (French for 'the Rothschild taste'), describes a detailed, elaborate style of interior decoration during the nineteenth century. The Rothschild aesthetic and life-style later influenced other rich and powerful families, including the Astors, Vanderbilts and Rockefellers, and became hallmarks of the American Gilded Age. Aspects of le goût Rothschild continued into the twentieth century, affecting such designers as Yves Saint Laurent and Robert Denning.[11]
