  • This video was filmed on March 6th and 13th, 2022 at Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library. Winterthur is an American Estate and Museum in Winterthur, Delaware. This magical place houses one of the most important collections of Americana in the USA. Winterthur was first purchased by E.I. DuPont between 1819 and 1818 And was used for farming and sheep-raising. Years later Henry Algernon and his wife Pauline settled at Winterthur in 1876. Their son, Henry Francis (H.F.) DuPont, who inherited the estate in 1927, was born four years later, in 1880. At the time Winterthur consisted of 90 buildings and over 2,600 acres. H.F. and his wife, Ruth renovated Winterthur’s manor tripling it’s size from 50 to his present 175 rooms. H.F. became a prominent collector of American decorative arts. He established Winterthur’s main building as a public museum in 1951 and moved to a smaller building on the estate. Today Winterthur is situated on 979 acres near Brandywine Creek with 60 acres of naturalistic gardens.
    This is the first of two videos I will feature of Winterthur. This video focuses on the home, it’s immediate surroundings, including the East Terrace Garden, and the Inside Out exhibit. The second video will be filmed in late April or May when the gardens are in bloom. The next video of Winterthur will focus on the landscapes including a second visit to the East Terrace Garden. Thanks so much for stopping by, I appreciate your support. Enjoy! 🦄

    The exterior with the endless uniform rows of windows looks like a hotel. The gardens appear dreary. Perhaps in the spring it would have a different ambiance.

    Kind of a magical historical place to visit!
    Thank you for all the information in the description and telling us as you go along.
    Such a lot of things to see and admire. It shows people have made a successful effort to present it all. Intersting how the collection evolved to such an extent. I can imagine how you loved wandering around in all those rooms and the surroundings. I would love it too. And thanks to you, l and all of us can enjoy all the amazing sights and wonderful art and objects. If they could talk... the stories they could tell! Not only about themselves, but also about the people who have been living there through history.
    I look forward to the other videos! Thank you for this interesting one already! 💙👍👋

      Hello Carina Gryp, Happy Saturday! I visited Winterthur twice for this video! I genuinely enjoyed both visits. Indeed there’s a lot to see. H.F. DuPont was quite a collector. He was also a horticulturist. He hired his good friend, Marian Cruger Coffin who was a landscape architect to assist with the design of 70 acres of the Estates Gardens. I’m looking forward to my next visit when Mother Nature’s in bloom. H.F. DuPont’s style of garden is much different then his second cousin Pierre at Longwood. Pierre built a French display garden and Henry went in a different direction to a natural or wild garden. Thanks so much for watching! I really appreciate your continued support! 🌺🦋🌸

    Thumbs up number eight my sister! I wonder which DuPont was the one who was the President of GM. What a lovely and enriched history sis. I enjoy all the angles you got! The lighting was flawless.

      No, it was once a DuPont Estate in Delaware. It’s been a museum since 1951. Winterthur also has beautiful grounds for hiking, leisurely walks, etc. Thanks for stopping by. 😊
