The Hill-Stead Museum, Farmington CT

By
Real Estate Agent with Vision Real Estate LLC

The Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington Ct is one of the most beautiful places to go and spend a few hours.  Built in 1901, it houses famous pieces of art from the masters Monet, Manet, Cassat and Whistler..to name a few.  It also has the loveliest grounds around-from rolling meadows to formal a formal english garden.

As you can imagine, it is a wonderful spot for picture taking, both casual and posed.  I often take my daughter there and take pictures in the gardens.  It is impeccably maintained and the Hill-Stead holds events here such as the famous "Sunken Garden Poetry Festival", a summer farmer's market as well as numerous catered events.

Whenever I am touring a new comer around Farmington Ct, The Hill-Stead Museum is always a definite stop along the way.
