History
The Tschiffely-Kent property has been a landmark along Darnestown Road since 1900. The stately mansion was built by Frederick Tschiffely, and later sold to Otis Beall Kent in 1942. The elegant property now belongs to the City of Gaithersburg, and is an ideal venue for weddings, receptions, social functions and business meetings.
Rotating Arts Gallery
In addition, the Kentlands Mansion has a rotating art gallery, curated by employees at the Arts Barn. Every 3 months, the Mansion features new artwork and guests are invited to schedule appointments to walk through the Mansion Monday-Friday from 9am-4pm.
