Wedding guests have free admission to the museum and gardens for our wedding weekend (just tell them you are our wedding guest at the gatehouse). Built in 1837, Winterthur (pronounced 'Winter-tour') was the home of the Du Pont family for many years before it was opened to the public. Enjoy touring the old DuPont estate-turned-museum, take a tram tour of the gardens, or pack a lunch and bottle of wine to enjoy a picnic in the shade!
