Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library and Museum

I-81 Exits 222 and 225. The Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library and Museum offers a variety of experiences for visitors of all ages. Retrace the inspiring journey of our 28th president at The Woodrow Wilson Museum as you take a self-guided tour through seven galleries.

Highlights include the President's restored 1919 Pierce-Arrow limousine. Immerse yourself in the new, state-of–the-art World War I Trench Exhibit complete with lights and sound to experience what life was like for soldiers as they engaged in battle and discover the unforgettable story of the doughboys. Children will especially enjoy the hands-on Kids’ Corner and scavenger hunts. The research library is open by appointment. Visit the new gift shop on the grounds. 

Enjoy an engaging guided tour of President Wilson’s birthplace, a beautifully restored Greek Revival manse. An authentic example of a Shenandoah Valley home during the pre-Civil War era, this National Historic Landmark is decorated with Wilson family treasures and period furnishings. Stroll through the magnificent Victorian-style terraced gardens behind the Manse which were designed by Charles Gillette and installed in the early 1930s by The Garden Club of Virginia.
