Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site

Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site
Off N.H. Rt. 12A, Cornish • (603) 675-2175

The Irish-born American sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens lived and worked here from 1885 until his death at age 59 in 1907. The sculptor’s work in bronze was part of an American Renaissance taking place in this small village on the Connecticut River. The site features full-size copies of his pieces including the well-known bust of Abraham Lincoln. In addition to the original house and furnishings, you can tour the artist’s studio, gallery and gardens. During the life of Saint-Gaudens, frequent visitors were artist Maxfield Parrish and American novelist Winston Churchill, both of whom had summer houses in the region. The house is open from Memorial Day through October 31 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The grounds are open every day from dawn to dusk.
