Building Description
The Lynden Sculpture Garden, the former estate of Harry and Peg Bradley, offers a unique experience of art in nature through its collection of more than 50 monumental sculptures sited across 40 acres of park, lake, and woodland. The Bradleys purchased the original farmhouse, barn, and cornfield in the 1920s. They transformed the landscape, made some additions to the house, and began collecting sculpture in 1962. Further renovations were undertaken as Lynden prepared to open to the public in 2010.
