Winterthur Museum, Garden and Library
Winterthur is a grand country estate with a huge mansion and 60 acres of flowering gardens. It was once the home of the du Pont family and is now open for everyone to visit.
It is famous for its beautiful gardens and a fairy-tale Enchanted Woods play area for children. Visitors love riding the tram through the blooming hills each spring.
Gardens
The rolling gardens burst with azaleas, tulips, and daffodils in spring. A tram carries visitors along winding paths so little legs do not get too tired.
For kids
The Enchanted Woods is a magical garden with a fairy cottage, a troll bridge, and a giant bird nest. Kids can climb, hide, and play pretend all afternoon.
History
The mansion holds thousands of old American treasures like furniture, dishes, and paintings. It shows how a wealthy family lived over a hundred years ago.
