Ulysses S Grant National Historic Site

Ulysses S Grant National Historic Site

Ulysses S. Grant is known as the victorious Civil War general who saved the Union and the 18th President of the United States. Few people know about his rise to fame or his personal life. He first met Julia Dent, his future wife, at her family home, named White Haven. Today, that home commemorates their lives and loving partnership against the turbulent backdrop of the nineteenth century. The site offers tours of the house and grounds and will soon offer living history programs.

We hope you enjoy our work.
