About

The Thomas Jefferson Foundation operates Monticello, the home of the Nation's third President and author of the American Declaration of Independence. Over the past ten years, an average of 440,000 people have visited Monticello annually. Admission includes an interpretive guided tour of his home, one of our Country's foremost architectural masterpieces and the only home in America named to the United Nations World Heritage list. In addition to admission revenue, the above total also includes gifts and grants, and sales from the retail operations of the museum shops, catalog, and online store. The revenue contributes to the preservation of Monticello for future generations, which is one of the missions of the Foundation. The Foundation's Restoration Department is dedicated to the architectural preservation of the United Nations World Heritage house while the curatorial collections are under the care of a full-time Curatorial Department.
