Women's Rights National Historical Park
Plan Your Visit
 

The park consists of four historical properties and a Visitor Center. Start at the Visitor Center where you can view our inspirational film and exhibits. Continue to the Wesleyan Chapel and imagine being a participant at the First Women's Rights Convention. Take a tour of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton home where she raised seven children and did extensive networking to create a reform movement.

In nearby Waterloo, the restored home of Thomas and Mary Ann M'Clintock is open to the public during the summer. Site of the planning for the First Women's Rights Convention, the M'Clintock House contains exhibits about the family's Quaker faith, and their work in Anti-Slavery and Women's Rights. The home of Richard and Jane Hunt is also in Waterloo. It is open to the public only on special occasions.

 

Bring your cellphone.
We have a new Dial and Discover audio tour with five stops. Check it out! Dial (315) 257.9370, add the number to your contacts list and take your own tour when you arrive, it's that easy.

Dont' forget your Passport to the National Parks.
Our park is "rich" in passport stamps. We have three to collect during your visit: the park stamp, the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor, and the Network to Freedom Underground Railroad Stamp. Go to the visitor center to find out where you can get all three.
