Mechanical Tour

Behind-the-Bricks Mechanical Tour

Go beyond the surface of Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural masterpiece on this exclusive 90-minute Behind the Bricks tour. 
Perfect for engineering enthusiasts, architecture buffs, and the tech-curious, this immersive experience reveals how cutting-edge mechanical systems are seamlessly integrated into the historic fabric of the Martin House.
Led by a senior member of our expert Facilities Team, this intimate, small-group tour (limited to just 6 guests) takes you underground and behind-the-scenes. Discover how geothermal wells, advanced heat pumps, plumbing systems, and a state-of-the-art fire suppression system quietly work behind the scenes to preserve the house and ensure guest safety—all while staying hidden from view.
You’ll gain rare access to areas not included in regular tours and see firsthand how architecture and technology collaborate to bring this National Historic Landmark into the 21st century.
