Our newest offering is a behind-the-scenes tour that will give voice to those who made this house tick, while we explore the spaces where the household staff lived and worked. Though the former servants wing is now used for administrative functions, the rooms remain intact with bits of evidence of their former appearance. Recent research has revealed more insights about these indispensable members of the household. Join us for this insightful glimpse into the past and experience Hill-Stead from a completely different point of view. Note: To take this tour, visitors need to be comfortable with stairs. Tickets $20 Members $24 Non-Members Register here
