About

Visit Woodlawn- a gift from George Washington to his nephew and step granddaughter- designed in 1805 by the first architect of the Capitol, William Thornton. Today, a dynamic re-birth is happening here with an expanded, inclusive narrative focused on telling the fullest story of all people associated with the property.

Woodlawn's history is complex and transformative- once a plantation home, it became, under Quaker ownership on the eve of the Civil War, a successful farming colony of freedmen, immigrants and abolitionists working and living together. The site also boasts a working farm powered by Arcadia, part of a vision that reflects back on Woodlawn's agrarian heritage.

Woodlawn was the first site operated by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.

Don't forget to visit the gift shop before you leave!
