Welcome to Winterthur

Winterthur is located in northern Delaware and is the premier museum of American decorative arts, with an unparalleled collection of nearly 90,000 objects made or used in America since 1640. The collection is displayed in the magnificent 175-room house, much as it was when the family of founder Henry Francis du Pont called it home.
Winterthur is also 1,000 acres of protected meadows, woodlands, ponds, and waterways. The 60-acre garden, designed by du Pont, is among America’s best, with magnificent plantings and massive displays of color throughout the year.
Our presenters are John Castle, Director of Facilities and Scott Heck, Assistant Director of Facilities. They will take us on a behind the scenes tour including their own water treatment center. Time permitting, we can visit the galleries as well as tour the house.
Join us for lunch and learn more about Winterthur!
