The Truman Home in Independence closed Monday for the winter.
Officials with the National Park Service, which administers the property, hope to reopen the home to visitors next spring. Until then workers will install new heating, cooling and fire suppression equipment, and also will make interior plaster repairs.
Meanwhile, the Harry S Truman National Historic Site Visitor Center at 223 N. Main St. in Independence will remain open. There, visitors can watch an orientation film about the former president and examine photographs of the home’s interior and the ongoing conservation work.
The home will reopen in spring of 2010.
