Thomas Jefferson's Monticello | Homes of our History Episode 3

Step inside Monticello, the Virginia mountaintop home of Thomas Jefferson — author of the Declaration of Independence, third president of the United States, architect, inventor, scholar, and philosopher of liberty.

In Episode 3 of Homes of Our History, we explore the home Jefferson called his “little mountain,” a place that reflected his restless mind and wide-ranging genius.

From Monticello’s iconic dome and classical architecture, to Jefferson’s library, cabinet, Great Clock, inventions, gardens, and lifelong love of learning, this episode reveals how one of America’s most influential Founding Fathers shaped his home into a living expression of his ideas.

Monticello was more than a residence. It was a workshop of the American republic — a place of books, architecture, science, hospitality, and vision.

Homes of Our History tells the story of America through the homes of the leaders who built, defended, and renewed our nation.
