CLERMONT STATE HISTORIC SITE
For seven generations, the Livingston family called Clermont home, joined by dozens of enslaved individuals and, later, paid servants whose work shaped daily life on the estate. Once part of a much larger landholding, Clermont gradually contracted over the years to the footprint preserved today as the 500-acre Clermont State Historic Site.
Come explore all Clermont has to offer!
Today Clermont is decorated as it appeared circa 1930, when it was home to Alice Delafield Clarkson Livingston, her daughters Honoria and Janet, and their staff of servants.
