Living Legacy of the New Deal

Greenbelt Museum

Town Seal, 1937

Home

Greenbelt, Maryland is a National Historic Landmark planned community built in 1937 as part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal.  Greenbelt was designed as a cooperative garden suburb that would be a model of modern  town planning in America.

The Greenbelt Museum allows visitors to experience Greenbelt’s beauty and rich history through tours of an historic home, award-winning exhibits, public lectures, educational programs for children, and walking tours of the historic town.

Support the Museum! Buy holiday gifts for everyone on your list from the  museum gift shop. Visit the museum’s table at the 2008 Festival of Lights held at the Greenbelt Community Center, December 6 from 10am-5pm and December 7 from 11am-4pm. We’ll be at the Co-op Grocery store from 11am-3pm on December 13 and 20 and shop at the museum’s historic  house every Sunday from 1pm-5pm. Thank you!
