The house, a National Historic Landmark, and an adjacent museum are operated by the Minnesota Historical Society, known as the Charles Lindbergh House and Museum.

These buildings include a picnic shelter and a water tower, built in the Rustic Style from local stone and logs, and have remained relatively unchanged since construction. Although the property includes shoreline on the Mississippi River, the Lindbergh family requested that the park not include intensive use areas for swimming or camping, so development was kept to a minimum.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Moore Farm and Twitchell Mill Site</span> United States historic place

The Moore Farm and Twitchell Mill Site is a historic property on Page Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The 6.8-acre (2.8 ha) property includes an early 19th-century farmhouse, as well as the remnants of one of Dublin's earliest industrial sites. It lies just south of a bend in Page Road in southern Dublin, where Stanley Brook runs east-west along the south side of the road. In c. 1768 Samuel Twitchell, Dublin's second settler, built a sawmill that used Stanley Brook as its power source. This mill was the second established in what is now Dublin, after that of Eli Morse. It was used until the mid-19th century, and now only its foundations remain. The farmhouse of Samuel Moore was built in a glen on the south side of the brook c. 1812, and was a vernacular Cape style farmhouse. The farm was purchased in 1935 by William and Katherine Mitchell Jackson, and the house was moved about 100 yards (91 m) to the top of a rise where it has commanding views of Mount Monadnock. The house was restored and enlarged under the guidance of architects Bradley & Church and again renovated in 1951. The farm complex includes a barn that is contemporaneous to the house, and a caretaker's cottage that is a 1952 reconstruction of an earlier one destroyed by fire.
