1 Best Sight in Wethersfield, Hartford and the Connecticut River Valley

Webb-Deane-Stevens Museum

For a true sample of Wethersfield's historic past, stop by the Joseph Webb House, the Silas Deane House, and the Isaac Stevens House—all adjacent to each other along Main Street and all built in the mid- to late 1700s. These well-preserved examples of Georgian architecture reflect their owners' lifestyles as, respectively, a merchant, a diplomat, and a tradesman. The Webb House, a registered National Historic Landmark, was the site of the strategy conference between George Washington and French general Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, which led to the British defeat at Yorktown.
