About Vermont
Verdmont Historic House museum is set in period-planted gardens with a panoramic view over the south shore. Built in about 1710, it is four-squared with four great chimneys. Unlike most buildings of its period, Verdmont has remained virtually unchanged structurally for almost 300 years. It was bought in 1951 by the Historical Monuments Trust and became a museum in 1956.

Collections
The house contains Bermuda’s most notable collection of antique Bermuda cedarwood furniture, as well as an important collection of Bermuda portraits.

The gardens feature plants known to have been cultivated in the 18th century.
