Clara Barton National Historic Site

Travel | Clara Barton National Historic Site

The Clara Barton National Historic Site, located in Glen Echo, Maryland is another spot close to my home. Clara Barton's home during the last fifteen years of her life is preserved and available for guided tours, each day. There are some temporary closures, due to an upcoming renovation.

She was a pioneer in humanitarian efforts and the founder of the American Red Cross.

Walking the grounds of the home, beneath the large trees, is also a lovely experience.
