Nemours Estate

Nemours Estate is a 225-acre public garden and historic home dating back to 1910. Its benefactor, Alfred I. duPont, also established The Nemours Foundation and Nemours Children’s Hospital, Delaware, which shares our campus and our legacy. As a historic property, public garden, and arboretum, Nemours Estate is perhaps the only location worldwide that shares its 501(c)(3) nonprofit status with a pediatric hospital. As such, we are uniquely positioned to explore the intersections of health, wellbeing, arts, history, nature and horticulture. Our programmatic and partnership goals reflect the work and ideas of the duPont family who carefully constructed and cultivated Nemours Estate.
