Visit Hagley this holiday season to experience Eleutherian Mills, the ancestral home of the du Pont family, sparkling with holiday merriment and memories. This year’s theme, “White Christmas,” reminisces upon the outdoor and indoor activities the du Pont family relished as the glittering snow fell along the Brandywine.
