100 Years of U.S. Presidential Inaugurations

On March 4, 1913, Woodrow Wilson took the oath of office. Nearly 100 years later, Barack Obama will take that same oath.
The U.S. presidential inauguration looks a tad different than it did a century ago. In 1913, women still did not have the right to vote and Wilson rode to the Capitol in a horse-drawn carriage. And don't expect to see President Obama wearing a silk top hat like Wilson either.


Thanks to the digital archiving of government images, zipping through 100 years of presidential history doesn't even require a trip to the library. We've compiled the most memorable photographs and videos taken at presidential inaugurations since 1913 for a scrollable history lesson.
If you like your history well-aged, then there's also a special gallery at the bottom featuring images from inaugurations that occurred before 1913 — including those of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt and Ulysses S. Grant.
