Cantigny Park is a publicly-open estate in Wheaton, Illinois. There are acres of formal and informal gardens, picnic groves and hiking paths, and two museums. The 35-room Robert R. McCormick Museum is the former residence of Joseph Medill, one of the first editors of the Chicago Tribune, and later the home of Colonel Robert R. McCormick, the Tribune's famous 20th century publisher. The residence, which was built in 1896-1897 and designed by architect Charles Allerton Coolidge, is open to the public for tours as an historic house museum, overseen by the Cantigny Foundation, a division of the Robert R. McCormick Foundation.
