A visit to the statue of President Van Buren in the Village of Kinderhook (and your photo sitting next to him) is a must.  The statue was a gift to the Village from the Friends of Lindenwald in 2007.

There are tours and events which take place throughout the year at Martin Van Buren NHS. In addition, there are numerous opportunities for recreation, learning and diversion in the nearby Villages of Kinderhook and Valatie and throughout Columbia County. You can learn more by clicking on the links above.
