The Truman Home Tour in Independence, MO offers visitors a glimpse into the simple life of the 33rd President of the United States, Harry S. Truman, and his wife Bess Truman.

In addition to the Truman Home, visitors can also explore the Truman Farm in Grandview, Missouri, which is open year-round for self-guided tours. The farm grounds offer a chance to experience the history of the Truman family, with an audio tour available onsite. Although the Truman Farm Home is currently not open, visitors can check the calendar of events to see when Rangers will be present to share the story of this historic site.
