Please note: Washington’s Headquarters (Tour Stop #5) will be closed for entry April 2026-April 2027 due to renovation work.

Visitors may still explore the Headquarters area, including the exterior of the building, the Valley Forge train station with a small exhibit covering Washington at Valley Forge, the Carriage House that features artifacts from the forges “Valley Forge” was named for, and a replica of George Washington, the famous sculpture of Washington by the renowned French sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdon.
