The Great Clock at Monticello


  • Monticello Charlottesville, VA USA (map)

The “Great Clock” in the hall at Monticello is among our most recognizable objects. It has been seen and remarked upon by millions of people since it was first installed in the Entrance Hall in 1804. Thanks to generous support from the Americana Foundation, we have been able to finish critically needed conservation on this iconic clock. Please join us on to learn more about this months-long project, and a clock that has been keeping the time of the country for more than two centuries HERE.
