Dumbarton House

This fine, dignified Georgian mansion, built around 1800, was long a centerpiece of Georgetown society. Local lore has it that Dolley Madison watched the White House burn during the War of 1812 from this hilltop home. It is now a showplace of graceful early 18th-century architecture, elegant period furnishings and lovely gardens. Among the notable items inside is Martha Washington's traveling cloak. The mansion is the headquarters of the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America. Admission: $3
