Home of Dr. Dietrich von Hildebrand in New Rochelle (from 1964-1977)



A lovely home at 43 Calton Road East.  DVH lived here until his death in 1977.  In fact, he passed away here, while laying in bed in the den.  I would like to see his cause for canonization proposed. DVH was a convert to the Faith and one of the very best Catholic philosophers of the twentieth century.  It would be nice to see this somehow preserved as a museum/library or meeting place for Catholic intellectuals.

  1. Some day hopefully all of his books will be translated from German and made available in English.
