Van Cortlandt Manor, Colonial manor in Croton-on-Hudson, United States.
The Van Cortlandt Manor sits at the meeting point of the Croton and Hudson Rivers, featuring Dutch-English colonial architecture with stone construction and period furnishings.
The property began as an 86,000-acre land grant from King William III to Stephanus Van Cortlandt in 1697, establishing a significant estate in colonial New York.
The manor presents daily life during the New Nation period, demonstrating the interactions between wealthy landowners, working-class citizens, and enslaved Black residents.
Visitors can find the manor at 525 South Riverside Avenue, with nearby access to Metro-North railroad station and electric car charging stations.
The British Army ransacked the manor during the Revolutionary War, leading to its temporary abandonment before restoration by Pierre Van Cortlandt's son Philip.
