Daniel Benton Homestead Museum

The Town of Tolland, first settled before 1715, covers an area of forty-one square miles and is situated twenty miles northeast of Hartford. Tolland is located on the Willimantic River in Northeast Connecticut.

Undeveloped, forested land covers gentle slopes between the town's many residential developments. Along with the two state forests and municipal parks, the town has a relatively rustic, rural character.

Tolland Green, the town's center, is now part of a national historic district. Included in the district are several of Tolland's historic attractions such as the Tolland County Courthouse, the Old Jail Museum, the Hicks-Stearn Family Museum, and many Victorian homes. The beauty and mystery of Tolland's oldest house, the Daniel Benton Homestead Museum, invite visitors to walk through the genuine antique home on Metcalf Road.
