Great option for small weddings, staff was helpful and the venue is stunning.

It’s just a great place. I’m definitely going to attend a ball at that place. The whole place has so much history and also speaks to the the love of Larz and Isabel.

The Anderson House is a 1905 mansion in Dupont Circle once owned by Larz and Isabel Anderson. Larz married into Isabels wealth and together they built this house as their D.C. home. When Larz left Isabel a widow in 1938, she gave the house (with everything inside) to the Society of the Cincinnati, the oldest patriotic society in the country. Today the society keeps the mansion open for free tours and houses the Revolutionary War Institute, a research center.Tuesday-Saturday from 10am-4pm, free tours are offered by the docents. The tour lasts a little over an hour and youll get to walk through most of the mansion (its the only way to see the rooms). Youll hear about how the Society was started by soldiers of the Revolutionary War tasked with keeping freedom alive and taking care of the wars widows and orphans. Youll hear how current membership works, George Washingtons involvement, and a lot about Larz Anderson, a Society member, and his wife.The house itself is huge and was cutting edge for its day with electricity and modern heating. The bottom floor has a large hall for entertaining, the library, an outdoor courtyard, and several other rooms. Upstairs has the dining room, entertaining rooms, and a giant hallway. The third floor is not open for tours, but houses thirteen guest rooms for members of the Society.The mansion is decorated with historic art and statues from the Andersons extensive travels.The Anderson House does have a small museum on the bottom floor and the space is used for events like weddings.

We attended an amazing wedding here...cant say enough about this beautiful pkace

Beautiful architecture, decor and artifacts. The society of Cincinnati has done well in restoring the place. One feels like they are in a different place and time. The best way to get here is to use the metro, Dupont metro is 3 to5 mins walk away.

Lovely, historic and worth a brief visit.

Such a beautiful place!

Must see for any history buff!
