If you've never been to the area before, you may still have heard of Longwood Gardens. Make a day out of it and view the 9,000+ species and varieties of plants spread out across more than 1,000 acres of gardens and elaborate horticultural displays. Originally founded by Pierre du Pont in 1906, it has since become world-renowned for its dedication to botany, design, education and art. |
The Battle of Brandywine was the largest single day battle of the American Revolution. Most preserved battlefield sites memorialize winning fights, but the Revolutionary Army actually lost ground at Brandywine. It covered the largest land area and incurred the most casualties of any battle in the war. Tour the Benjamin Ring House, which George Washington used as his headquarters before the battle. Next door is the huge, 300+ year old Lafayette Sycamore linked to an intriguing historical myth... |
Discover an outstanding collection of American art housed in a 19th century mill with a dramatic steel and glass addition overlooking the banks of the Brandywine River. Renowned for its holdings of the Wyeth family of artists, the Brandywine River Museum of Art features galleries dedicated to the work of N.C., Andrew and Jamie Wyeth.
