It was designed by English architect George Hadfield, who helped design the US Capitol. For 30 years, Arlington House was home to Robert E.

This small historic garden nestled within Arlington cemetary is a restful and reminiscent space. The history of America spans hundreds of years atop this hill as it captures the essence of our American gardening beginning.
