A National Trust Historic Site in Philadelphia
The walls of Cliveden sheltered British troops from American attack during the Battle of Germantown, as well as seven generations of Philadelphia’s Chew family in the years that followed. Today, Cliveden is a National Trust Historic Site, open to the public for tours April through December. Concerts, lectures and workshops, annual celebrations and special events make Cliveden a vital member of Philadelphia’s Historic Germantown Neighborhood (Freedom’s Backyard). Cliveden tells a story of America’s continuing struggle for freedom. Come visit us!
**Cliveden is currently closed due to construction work in the house. Anticipated reopening date is July 16. Groups interested in tour reservations should call 215-848-1777 for further details.**
While visiting us for the reopening of the Chew House, drop by on Sunday, July 19 for our 10th Annual Outdoor Jazz Festival.
