Waddesdon is an historic house and garden open to the public. Created by Baron Ferdinand deRothschild from 1874; it is home to the Rothschild Collection.
Waddesdon’s collections are exceptionally rich in fine and decorative arts of the 18th century assembled by three generations of the Rothschild family. Since 1957 the Manor has been owned by the National Trust and today it is managed by a charitable trust, the Rothschild Foundation, under the chairmanship of Lord Rothschild.
We welcome around 350,000 visitors to the property and over 2 million browsers to our websites each year. Waddesdon offers visitors a programme of changing exhibitions, talks and tours, family activities and public events. The income from our private events business, shop, restaurants and sixteen-bedroom hotel help support opening the Manor to the public, our education programme and the care of the buildings, collections and gardens.
