Information About

William Howard Taft National Historic Site




At the site is the house where President Of The United States and Chief Justice Of The United States William Howard Taft was born, in 1857; he lived in that house for most of his first 25 years.

The William Howard Taft Memorial Association leased the property in 1961 to preserve it; at the time the house was in poor condition. The association gained full title to the house in 1968 and in 1969, transferred it to the National Park Service. Long-range restoration plans are currently in the works.
