Located in the heart of Denison, Eisenhower Birthplace State Historic Site showcases the home where the 34th U.S. President Dwight David ‘Ike’Eisenhower was born in 1890. Antique furnishings fill the modest frame house, illustrating the late-19th-century working class life of the Eisenhowers. A visitors center displays scores of items relating to Eisenhower and his role in American and world history. The site also includes picnic tables, six acres of scenic woods and creek bottomland, and a larger-than-life statue of the general.
