Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site is a 9.65-acre (3.91 ha) United States National Historic Site located 10 miles (16 km) southwest of downtown St. Louis, Missouri, within the municipality of Grantwood Village.

The site, also known as White Haven, commemorates the life, military career, and presidency of Ulysses S. Grant. Five historic structures are preserved at the site, including the childhood home of Ulysses' wife, Julia Dent Grant.

White Haven was an 850-acre plantation worked by enslaved people; Grant supervised their forced labor from 1854 to 1859.

The Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site is a small site that contains the home of the Dent and Grant families prior to the Civil War when Grant was still a Democrat and owned slaves.

I found it an interesting place to visit and it is located close by "Grant's Farm" which is the bigger attraction. So if you visit "Grant's Farm", consider stopping by here where they offer guided tours explaining the background of the site.
