Welcome to Vizcaya Museum and Gardens

Vizcaya is a National Historic Landmark; we're also a museum owned by Miami-Dade County and accredited by the American Association of Museums. We invite you to visit this serene and stunningly beautiful retreat in the heart of Miami.

Built by agricultural industrialist James Deering in 1916, Vizcaya Museum & Gardens features a Main House, ten acres of formal gardens, and a rockland hammock (native forest).

Vizcaya plays the part of the mansion of the evil “Mandarin” and there are several scenes that were shot on location last fall including a spectacular aerial of the east façade on Biscayne Bay and fight scenes with Ironman on the stone steps of the Casino in the formal gardens.


Vizcaya is open daily from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. except Tuesdays, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.

Vizcaya Museum and Gardens estará abierto todos los días del año menos los martes, el día de Acción de Gracias y el día de Navidad.
