www.hillstead.org

    • Mission

    Hill-Stead Museum, a National Historic Landmark, serves diverse audiences in Connecticut and beyond as a welcoming place for learning, reflection and enjoyment. The museum develops, preserves, documents, displays and interprets its exceptional Impressionist paintings, 1901 historic house and 152-acre landscape for the benefit of present and future generations.

    About Us

    Hill-Stead Museum is a singular place, seamlessly blending the charm of a historic house with the allure of an art museum. This unique combination allows Hill-Stead to offer a more personal and enriching experience for visitors. Set within 152 acres of breathtaking natural beauty, the museum boasts an extraordinary collection of Impressionist and decorative art, meticulously displayed within its original, in-situ domestic interiors. The fusion of historical architecture and world-class artwork creates an immersive experience that distinguishes Hill-Stead from other institutions. Its founder, Theodate Pope Riddle (b.1867)-one of the first licensed female architects in the United States-designed Hill-Stead as her family home in 1901 and transformed it into a museum upon her death in 1946. Her creation and legacy represent a harmonious convergence of heritage, art, and nature.
