Poplar Forest reopens for daily visitation. Explore Jefferson’s Palladian-style villa on an hour-long guided tour; docents share true stories and anecdotes about the president’s lifestyle at Poplar Forest and that of his enslaved workers, gleaned from his letters and diaries as well as archaeological evidence found on the plantation grounds. Find additional insight into the world and life of Poplar Forest’s enslaved residents on the Enslaved Community Tours offered regularly from April through October, at no extra cost. Reservations are required, as tour groups are limited to a maximum of 10 people. Face masks and proper social distancing are required in buildings and on tours.
