HARRY S TRUMAN NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE

This 2 1/2-story Victorian mansion at 219 North Delaware in Independence, Missouri, was the home of Harry S Truman, 33rd President of the United States, from 1919 to 1972. During the Truman presidency it was called the "Summer White House". With the death of Mrs. Bess Truman in 1982, the home became the Harry S Truman National Historic Site.
