The Historic Daniel Boone Home and Boonesfield Village is a registered National Historic Site located in Defiance, Missouri. The Boone Home, nearly 200 years old, is large even by today's standards. It rises four stories with limestone walls 2 ˝ feet thick and a kitchen in what most would consider would be the basement.
The Daniel Boone home overlooks the Boonesfield Village which is comprised of over a dozen 19th century buildings including the Old Peace Chapel, grist mill, schoolhouse, and carpenter’s shop. Each building has been moved to the site from within 50 miles of the local area. The buildings offer visitors a glimpse into life as a frontiersman and the chance to witness the hard work and dedication these men and women possessed.
Lindenwood University purchased the Boone Home in 1998. The mission of the Boone Home and Boonesfield Village Historic Site is to provide a center for fully integrated learning on all education levels from elementary through the University level; to preserve and protect the historic structures, collection, and natural resources that comprise the facility; and to interpret the early American frontier experience in Missouri as exemplified by the Boone family and their contemporaries.
The Daniel Boone Home and Boonesfield Village is open daily except for New Years Day, Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. During Day Light Saving hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and during Standard Time, hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. This is a non-smoking site. Not all buildings are handicap accessible.
