Many national parks have direct connections to American presidents—dozens of national historic sites, monuments, and memorials (even one national park) preserve the birthplaces, childhood homes, and residences of our nation's chief executives. One park, the White House, has been home to every U.S. president except George Washington. 

Have you visited the home of a president?
