Chester Alan Arthur State Historic Site

The Chester Alan Arthur Historic Site contains a yellow cottage with two rooms and a granite monument marking the presumed presidential birthplace location.

The granite monument was placed in 1903, and in 1953 the state constructed a replica house based on historical photographs of Arthur's residence.

The site includes exhibits and artifacts that detail the life and presidency of Chester Alan Arthur, the twenty-first president of the United States.

The historic site opens to visitors during weekends from July through mid-October, with guided tours available between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM.

Research indicates that this location might not be Arthur's actual birthplace, as debates continue about whether he was born in a cabin several miles away.
