Wildflower gardens surround the Brandywine River Museum, a 19th-century gristmill, in glorious color from spring through autumn. Walkers and bird watchers enjoy the pastoral grounds of this piece of American history.
The building itself combines the elegance of art with the grandeur of nature. Galleries boast original beams and wide board floors, while glass-walled lobbies provide expansive views of the historic river and countryside.
Known for its unparalelled collection of Wyeth paintings, the museum also has an outstanding collection of American illustration, still life and landscape painting.
