America´s most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, was born in 1867 in the rolling hills of Richland Center, Wisconsin, to a family of Unitarians and Quakers. Even with world-class commissions like New York City´s Guggenheim Museum, his organic architecture remains rooted in Wisconsin´s landscape, from affordable-housing prototypes in Milwaukee to his summer home and architecture school in rural Spring Green.

This comprehensive guide to Wright´s designs (and those of his protégés) that are open to the public—as well as insider historical information about sites now demolished, and those available for "drive-bys" only—is for the architecture or history fan looking for tours, overnight stays or creative inspiration Museum collections in Wisconsin that include Wright´s furnishings and drawings are also included.
