Was not able to catch it at an open time...hours didnt match what was on here. Would have been really cool to go inside, but still pretty incredible to stand outside where the Declaration of Independence was written!

It is so easy to miss this important place on the sidewalk, unless you have added it to your bucket list. The Graff house board is placed right on the sidewalk but there is an additional entrance from the side which is on a smaller side road. The gate is closed after 2 pm and the same entrance leads to the museum inside.️ This place has:Yes=Ramp access.Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Entrance.Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Restroom/Toilet.Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Seating.Yes=A wheelchair-accessible Parking.

Worth seeing. The door is unmarked. Just pull and it is behind. Must see for Jefferson fans.

It’s a beautiful historic house that has been reconstructed in the 1970s. Unfortunately, it is closed to the public until mid-2017. Still, it’s an architectural eye candy deserving of photos.

Great historical site where Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence. The original house was demolished in 1883 but the National Park reconstructed the house you see today.

Needs to better explain that this was a rebuild and only slightly resembles what the roo s MIGHT have looked like.

If you do not know much about where Thomas Jefferson lived while he wrote the Declaration of Independence, then this is a place that you definitely will want to visit. I never realized how small the beds where back in those days much less that Thomas only rented 2 rooms.

This house is a Disneyland style fake from 1975. Before that, a beautiful Frank Furness bulding (Penn National Bank), an architectural masterpiece, has been demolished on this site.

This is the house (reconstructed, 1975) in which Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence. Exhibits, a short film, and a fully furnished bedroom and parlor made up as if Thomas Jefferson were still living there today.
