Item Description

A Hildene Family Membership entitles the named cardholder(s), their children and grandchildren aged 16 and under, to general admission until the membership expires. Members can also enjoy early registration and reduced rates for Hildene Summer Camps and 10% off your purchases in the Museum Store and on-line. Additionally, members receive free or reduced admission to over 320 American Horticulture Society gardens and arboreta, as well as to over 1200 member sites of the north American reciprocal museums Association across the country.

Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home, located in Manchester, Vermont, is open year round. Membership is good for self guided tours of the gardens and house, where the Lincoln family lived for 70 years.  It also includes access to all the other venues on the 412 acre extate including the formal and kitchen gardens, the meticulously restored 1903 wooden Pullman car and exhibit, the dairy farm (Nubian goats and cheese-making facility), the lower level Dene Farm (including an 1832 schoolhouse), and 12 miles of trails.  

About Hildene
The Lincoln Family Home
His father was born in a log cabin and called from the humblest rank in life to preside over our nation during the most momentous period of its history. One generation later, Robert Todd Lincoln, the only child of Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln to survive to adulthood, became Chairman of the Pullman Company, the largest manufacturing corporation at the turn of the 20th century. He built his Georgian Revival mansion in 1905 in the scenic village of Manchester. It became home to only Lincoln descendants until 1975, longer than any other Lincoln residence. It is the Great American Story.
