100 Years of Mystery!

One hundred years have passed since Sarah L. Winchester first arrived in the Santa Clara Valley with nearly $20,000,000 and began quietly adding rooms to a small country farm house, then three miles west of San Jose. Ten years have passed since the massive restoration of the Winchester House and gardens commenced as a tribute to America's and San Jose's bicentennials.
 
Today the Winchester Estate is once again the showplace of the Valley! Although the Lady of Mystery was called from her earthly home in 1922, we believe these events have permitted Sarah L. Winchester, in her own way, to achieve a unique kind of eternal life.
 
This plaque was dedicated on Friday, April 13th, 1984, by the Winchester Mystery House Restoration Board and Mountain Charlie Chapter No. 1850, E Clampus Vitus (ECV).
