كان Hillwood المقر الأخير لـ Marjorie Merriweather Post، وريثة إمبراطورية حبوب الإفطار وجامعة التحف وفاعلة الخير، حيث اشترت القصر المصمم على الطراز الجورجي والعائد إلى عشرينيات القرن الماضي في عام 1955، وحوّلته إلى متحف افتُتح أمام الجمهور عام 1977. تضم مقتنياته نحو 17,000 قطعة فنية، وتعد المجموعة الأكثر شمولاً للفن الإمبراطوري الروسي خارج روسيا؛ إذ تحتوي على بيضتي فصح من إبداع Fabergé أهداهما Nicholas II لوالدته Maria Fedorovna، إلى جانب الأيقونات، والكؤوس المقدسة، والمنسوجات الطقسية المعروضة في Icon Room. كما تحتضن القاعات الفرنسية خزف Sèvres، ولوحات بورتريه بتوقيع Nattier، وأثاثاً من صُنع Jean-Henri Riesener، صانع الخزائن الخاص بالملك Louis XVI، بالإضافة إلى مجوهرات Post من داري Cartier وHarry Winston. أما في الخارج، فتمتد ثلاثة عشر فداناً من الحدائق المنسقة التي صممتها شركة Innocenti and Webel كغرف مفتوحة متتالية في الهواء الطلق، بدءاً من الحديقة الفرنسية وحديقة الورود، وصولاً إلى حديقة على الطراز الياباني شُيدت عام 1957 وdacha على الطراز الروسي.
