Visitors who enjoy starting their tour day early will be rewarded with a rare opportunity to view the north wing and kitchen of the Home of Franklin Roosevelt National Historic Site. The site is located on Route 9 in Hyde Park, New York.

These special extended tours will begin on January 4. This limited edition program, running through April, will be available every day at 9:00 AM only, to groups of 8 or less.   The tour will include the kitchen as well as President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s study, a rarely seen gem which is perhaps the most historically significant room of the home.   It was in this tiny room in September 1944 where British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and FDR discussed the development and probable use of the atomic bomb. These areas are not included in regular tours of the house due to space constraints in the north wing 

The tour is handicapped accessible and lasts about an hour and 15 minutes.  Reservations may be made by calling the fee desk at the Henry A. Wallace Visitor Center at 845-229-5320.
