We the People Support Montpelier
Montpelier is the lifelong home of James Madison, Father of the Constitution, Architect of the Bill of Rights, and fourth President of the United States. As a monument to James Madison and the Enslaved Community, a museum of American history, and a center for constitutional education, Montpelier engages the public with the enduring legacy of Madison’s most powerful idea: government by the people.
Montpelier is more than just the home of one of America’s Founding Fathers. It’s a place where we can learn how our Constitution affects our everyday lives. It’s a site that brings its legacy of slavery out of the past and under the lens of our current understanding of the world we all inhabit. It’s an ongoing archaeological dig that tells us more about 18th-century life every day. It’s a destination for anyone who wants to know more about how the thinking of James Madison changed the world.
