The Mount Estate & Gardens

The Mount, designed and built by Edith Wharton, is a quintessential example of American Renaissance architecture, based on principles from her 1897 book, The Decoration of Houses. This classical revival estate, with its meticulously designed formal gardens, offers a rare glimpse into Wharton's architectural and landscape theories.

 

As one of the few National Historic Landmarks dedicated to women, The Mount holds a special place in history. Guided tours explore its rich past, from construction to restoration, while delving into Wharton's life, achievements, and literary contributions. The house features three floors of beautifully preserved formal and private rooms, including Wharton's library, her restored bedroom suite, and the old kitchen.

 

The Mount is fully accessible with elevators to all floors, though the gardens offer partial accessibility.

 

Hancock Shaker Village

Discover Hancock Shaker Village, a registered National Landmark and the largest Shaker museum in the eastern United States. Opened as a living history museum in 1961, it features 20 historic buildings, extensive gardens, and an impressive collection of Shaker artifacts. The Round Stone Barn is a highlight, showcasing the Shakers' innovative spirit. The village also offers Shaker craft demonstrations, historic livestock breeds, and a restored 19th-century water system. Explore the Center for Shaker Studies, which includes two exhibition galleries, one dedicated to Shaker gift drawings.

 

Most of the village is handicap accessible, and an on-site café provides a convenient spot to relax and enjoy your visit.
