Hillwood Estate Museum & Gardens Snapshot
Staff of Hillwood Estate, Museum & Gardens are part of a distinguished tradition that began when Marjorie Post opened her home and collections to college students and arts organizations and has continued through the forty years of Hillwood as a public institution. Our collective goal is to provide the best possible visitor experience.
Marjorie Merriweather Post bought Hillwood in 1955 and soon decided her home would be a museum that would inspire and educate the public. Her northwest Washington, D.C. estate endowed the country with the most comprehensive collection of Russian imperial art outside of Russia, a distinguished eighteenth-century French decorative art collection, and twenty-five acres of serene landscaped gardens and natural woodlands for all to enjoy.
Opened as a public institution in 1977, today Hillwood's allure stems from the equally fascinating parts that make up the whole. From the captivating life of Marjorie Post to the exquisitely maintained mansion and gardens, the experience of Hillwood outshines even the Fabergé Eggs.
