The Sanfilippo Estate

The Sanfilippo Estate in Barrington Hills, Illinois, is a remarkable private residence known for housing one of the world’s finest collections of restored automatic music instruments. Steeped in history, artistry, and mechanical wonder, the Estate offers an unforgettable backdrop for charity galas, concerts, and pre-arranged corporate functions. Its elaborate interiors, museum-quality displays, and immersive guided experiences make it one of Chicagoland’s most unique cultural destinations.

While the Estate is not open to the general public, it welcomes pre-arranged group tours of 40 or more guests and provides charity organizations with exclusive opportunities to host catered fundraising events that consistently draw new supporters. The Sanfilippo Foundation maintains a strong commitment to preservation, education, and community impact, offering concerts, foundation-sponsored events, and guided access through reservation-only programming.
