General's Room

Eisenhower National Historic Site

Description

This small and sparsely decorated room served as General Eisenhower’s dressing room. Following his 1955 heart attack, he used the room for afternoon naps which he took daily under doctor’s orders. Many of the General’s westerns occupy the bookshelf. The portrait he painted of his two oldest grandchildren hangs over the bed.
