Determining Saratoga Springs’ “oldest building” title is a fascinating puzzle. Two contenders hold a special place in the city’s history: Brookside Museum: A resort hotel built in 1792, this structure stands as one of the oldest surviving hotels in the United States.
Today, it’s a preserved museum showcasing Saratoga’s rich history and early tourism. The Olde Bryan Inn: While not as demonstrably old, this Federal-style stone house is undeniably charming. Built in 1826, it was originally a family home before transforming into an inn.
It’s the only remaining Federal-style house in Saratoga Springs, offering a glimpse into early domestic architecture.
