A village-size museum of Americana, the collection comprises a chateau with 175 period rooms; a museum holding 85,000 objects and a naturalistic 60-acre garden .
Enchanted woods children's garden is fantastic for kids 18 months and older. Also really enjoyed the Crown exhibit and the follies around the garden .
A great collection by H.F. du Pont with some interesting furniture pieces he accumulated over twenty years. The Downton Abbey exhibit was interesting even though I know nothing about the show.
Gorgeous grounds! Exquisite decor in Winterthur. The Downton Abbey exhibit is a must see. You can skip the lunch at the restaurant ...very blah/bland.
You can definitely spend an entire weekend here - wandering the grounds alone is wonderful. Most definitely a seasonal visit is required!!!
If you plan on visiting as a family more than once a year, get the family membership, it has some nice perks!
Must plan your trip in advance to enjoy your visit
The Christmas decor is gorgeous. Sometimes the entertainment.com coupon book has a discount coupon. They also have a childrens' garden which I haven't seen yet.
The Yuletide tour is wonderful.
A wonderful place to walk around and enjoy the grounds.
it's worth taking your little ones to the enchanted woods to see fairies amd all their magic.

Beautiful grounds and a very impressive house!
Outstanding naturalistic garden . It is the former home of Henry Francis du Pont , an avid antiques collector and horticulturist.
At Henry Francis du Pont 's estate, you can see decorative art displayed in the intimate setting of a home, not the sterile environment of a museum . Read more

Become enchanted in a secret garden
My kids love the fairy rings. They do get dirty in wet mulch, however. - Vince Lyons
Gorgeous property, awesome learning opportunity. House is beautiful, but tours need a lot of interpretive updating. Worth the visit though for the gorgeous creek side trails with mill ruins. - Gabrielle Anne
Their Annual Craft Fair and Specialty Food Market are amazing. - Mistress of Spice
Amazing ambiance, and amazing food. Really nice place!! Definitely worth it as my sweet 16 dinner pick :) - Cassie R.
Great coffee all around, best coffeehouse ambiance in the area. Especially like the Cold and Nitro Brews. Grab a Heady Brew bottled cold brew coffee if you need a quick fix! - Brent Madison
