A good state landmark preserves history by displaying authentic artifacts that show how people lived in earlier times, how they cooked, and what sitcoms they frequently quoted. Enjoy edifying conservation with today's Groupon to Connecticut Landmarks, including the Bellamy-Ferriday House & Garden in Bethlehem, the Butler-McCook House & Garden in Hartford, the Hempsted Houses in New London, the Nathan Hale Homestead in Coventry, and the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden in Suffield. Choose between the following options:

• For $7, you get two admissions to any of the five participating Connecticut Landmarks (up to a $14 value).
For $20, you get an individual Connecticut Landmarks membership (a $40 value).

Each of the five participating Connecticut Landmarks offers a glimpse inside the domestic lifestyles of the state's early settlers, patriots, and prominent citizens. Grab a three-cornered hat and a nerf musket before storming the grounds of any one of the landmarks with a compatriot, or choose the individual membership for admittance to each house as many times as desired throughout the year. Members also receive a free subscription to the Landmark News newsletter, invitations to special events, a 10% discount on all museum shops, and a discount subscription to Connecticut Explored, a magazine that chronicles Connecticut's history.

See where Nathan Hale grew up at the Nathan Hale Homestead or marvel at the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by two 18th-century families at the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden. The five buildings range in age from 229 to 333 years old, telling the story of Connecticut and illustrating what kinds of civil issues can arise without dependable central air conditioning.
