NEW IN-DEPTH TOURS
To enhance the Montpelier experience and offer visitors more in-depth tour options, The Montpelier Foundation is
offering three new special tours. These thematic tours will be offered daily and include visits to the mansion, as well as
to less traveled locations such as mansion cellars, Mr. Madison’s Temple, and Montpelier’s special collection galleries.
MADISON AND THE
CONSTITUTION
Freedom, democracy, and the ideas
that inspired a nation and changed
the world come alive in this tour
featuring the life and career of James
Madison, Father of the Constitution,
as well as the political philosophies
and debates embodied in the
U.S. Constitution. Gain a deeper
understanding and appreciation for
the “spirit” not just the “letter” of
