DAR Museum
1776 D Street NW, Washington, DC 20006, USA
Georgian Revival marble hall of period rooms and thirty thousand early American heirlooms, quilts, and textiles.
This guide to the DAR Museum in Washington, D.C. starts with the marshy ground of old Funkstown and Foggy Bottom, the buried Tiber Creek canal, and the Daughters of the American Revolution's 1904-1910 marble headquarters. You'll meet architect Edward Pearce Casey and hear about the museum's founding in 1890, before wandering among its trove of mourning silk pictures, quilts and Victorian toys.
