Built in 1762 with the profits from a successful grist and lumber mill on the property, the historic house has overlooked the Perkiomen Creek for over 260 years. In 1803 the house became the first home in America (and only one left still standing) of renowned artist and naturalist John James Audubon. This National Historic Landmark is situated in the midst of over 200 acres of wildlife sanctuary. Dotted with miles of walking trails, the property not only offers a historic house museum but a new state of the art science and conservation center. See an original copy of Audubon’s masterpiece The Birds of America, his lesser-known Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America, as well as multitudes of other various rotating artwork. Learn about birds, science, art, and history all in one convenient location situated just minutes from routes 76, 202, 422, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike.

The Visitor Center and Museum are open Wednesday-Sunday, 10-4. The Historic House is open Wednesday-Sunday at 1:00pm via a guided tour. The grounds are open 7 days a week from dawn to dusk, free of charge.
