Sanfilippo Estate - Barrington, Illinois

Fantastic collection of self-playing musical instruments, a lovingly rescued and restored 19th century carousel, 7000 pipe theater organ, early 20th century gambling machinery, other stuff I didn't have time to see, and the house itself. Highly recommended if you have the chance to join a charity event. Non-event tickets are also available, and I assume these tours are also worth doing.

This is an amazing place. Incredible restorations and preservations of mechanical music machines and steam equipment. The best part of the day was the phenomenal performance by Dave Wickerham on the exceptional theater organ. This was the second time I've seen him perform and hope for the privilege to attend many more performances.

Don't miss this place. I wish I could give it ten stars. I didn't know what to expect... and wow. I went for the perfume tour, and it was amazing. I could have spent a week looking at the items. The focus was more on bottles, packaging, and social history of perfumes. Collection included cosmetics, and art glass. The house is incredible and there were a bunch of other antiques-- particularly music machines-- that are part of another tour. If I wasn't leaving the next day, I would have gone back again.

Amazing estate. The special Halloween event was definitely worth it. Great costumes and who can say they have ridden a private carousel.

Besides the biggest theater organ which is amazing there is an antique carousel on the estate. You'll see the finest collection of mechanical music machines in one place. Also if you are into steam engines there restored & on display. There are many charity events that you may get tickets, don't miss this.

Truly amazing! Over the top ornate details. completely full of wooden musical antiques from an erasing gone. But in this case, lovingly not forgotten. A testament to mechanical ingenuity and good taste. More examples than any museum.

Mind-blowing place. The grounds are huge, and the house museum is so cool. There is such a huge variety of collections, and so much to explore. Definitely see the carousel in the barn, it is absolutely stunning, and functional!
