Gropius House is the Lincoln home that Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius built for his family after coming to teach at Harvard. The house is modest in scale but bold in context, mixing New England materials with flat roofs, ribbon windows, glass block, and carefully planned circulation.
Tours are the point of visiting: the interiors still show the Gropius family's furniture, textiles, art, and experiments in modern living. It works well as a design-focused counterpoint to Concord's literary and Revolutionary sites, especially for travelers interested in how European Modernism took root in the United States.
