The
Historic Treasury Collection
The
historic Treasury Collection represents one of the oldest and most intact collections
of fine and decorative arts in the Executive branch of the U.S. Government.
Like its immediate neighbor, the White House, the Treasury Department has remained
on the original Pennsylvania Avenue site since 1800 when the federal government
permanently moved to Washington.
