Stones River National Cemetery

Step into a classic Victorian home.

Theodore was born into an affluent New York City family during the Victorian era. Five restored period rooms reflect the lifestyle of the Roosevelts circa 1865. Many original artifacts were donated by the Roosevelt family. Park Ranger-led tours of the rooms allow visitors to enjoy the décor and furnishings of this unique period in the history of decorative arts.

A wealth of Theodore Roosevelt memorabilia.

Two gallery rooms display items that capture the achievements, challenges, and public adoration of this unique American president. A master of the ‘photo-op,’ Images of Theodore Roosevelt as well as his Rough Rider uniform, rancher gear, and items created in his honor can be seen in these galleries.

An array of T.R. political cartoons.

Theodore Roosevelt was beloved by political cartoonists. His larger than life personality and distinct physical appearance provided them with ample material. One of these cartoonists was Clifford Berryman, whose lampoon of T.R. led to the creation of the Teddy Bear. A collection of the cartoons provides a quirky look at this notable man.
