Truly enjoyed this place and the movie that was shown inside. Next time will try the 86 steps up to visit his home on the hill . Great history
Great spot for taking guests and children. Parking is easy and the tour is informative. Great panoramic views . nurish is a great Scandanavian restaurant to eat at afterwards.
Limited tours throughout the day. Make sure to check the website for times. A beautiful view of DC from the home.
Make reservations for the house tour well in advance. Not too much else to see here unless you have tour tickets!

Educational. Enlightening. Also free, can't see a reason not to. Also a different type of date idea.
The Frederick Douglass home, built in 1855-1859. Douglas made serveral alterations to the building in the 1890s. The property was restored in 1962-64.
Nice to see and know the history of the house.
