Built in 1816 by Martha Washington’s granddaughter and her husband and home to five generations of her descendants, Tudor Place Historic House and Garden is a beautifully preserved Federal-style mansion in historic Georgetown, D.C.
A National Historic Landmark, Tudor Place connects visitors to the history of the landscape and a sense of what it was like to live and work there from the 18th to 20th centuries. Set on 5½ acres, the gardens at Tudor Place boast manicured lawns, garden structures and ornamental garden rooms that act as a historical record of changing land use over time.
The gardens can be explored via a network of walking paths through “garden rooms” that identify past and present uses, including orchards, rose gardens, tennis lawns, quiet groves and fountains. The grassy Bowling Green features a charming lily pond.
