Hillwood House Museum Lovely mansion and grounds

4155 Linnean Avenue Northwest Washington DC 20008 +1 202 686 5807

Hillwood House is a 40-room Georgian mansion that once belonged to cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post. Of particular interest is the large collection of 18th- and 19th-century French and Russian decorative art - gold and silver, lace, tapestries, china and Faberge eggs. The estate includes a dacha and an Adirondacks-style cabin. The 25-acre grounds are equally impressive with small pleasure gardens and wooded hillsides. Please note that reservations must be made in advance to tour the house and gardens. Admission: $10 house and grounds, $2 grounds only. Review © 2009, Wcities
