The Liriodendron is a historic home and estate of Dr. Howard Kelly and his wife Laetitia. Dr. Kelly was a respected surgeon and one of the four founding physicians of the Johns Hopkins Medical College. Purchased in the 1890s, originally 196 acres on the western edge of the town of Bel Air, the property now consists of approximately 100 acres.
The estate was sold to Harford County, which still owns the property. The non-profit Liriodendron Foundation was established to preserve and maintain the mansion and surrounding grounds. The Liriodendron is now used as a wedding, events, meeting and arts facility, and a gallery on the second floor. The Liriodendron is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Please call for hours and tours.
