Located in the Driftless Region of southwestern Wisconsin near Spring Green, Taliesin is the name of Wright's home as well as the estate that includes buildings from nearly every decade of Wright's career from the 1890s to the 1950s. Taliesin has a commanding presence in Jones Valley, the land along Wisconsin River where Wright's Lloyd Jones ancestors settled in the 1860s after emigrating from Wales 20 years before. Taliesin was named in honor of his Welsh heritage: The name of a druid bard, Taliesin literally means "shining brow." Its many wings and terraces reach out to frame the crown of the hill, embracing the site and standing as "brow." Taliesin is designated as a National Historic Landmark (1974) and inscribed as part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site (2019)
