WELCOME TO DUMBARTON HOUSE

Headquarters of The National Society of The Colonial Dames of America

Dumbarton House "is... one of the very finest and most beautiful houses in the United States," according to architectural historian Fiske Kimball, consulting architect for its original restoration. Dumbarton House reflects the emerging Adamesque style of architecture of the early Republic, and has an outstanding collection of Federal period furniture and decorative arts.
