Schuyler Mansion State Historic Site

Philip Schuyler's Albany home served as the de facto headquarters of the Continental Army's Northern Department. Built 1761–1765, the mansion hosted officers, politicians, and — after Saratoga — prisoners of war including General Burgoyne himself. Alexander Hamilton married Elizabeth Schuyler here on December 14, 1780. The New York State Office of Parks operates the mansion as a museum, with period furnishings and interpretive programming on the Schuyler family's role in the Revolution.
