As many may know, Louisa May Alcott's own life inspired many of the events in Little Women and the author's Concord home, the Orchard House, is often the inspiration for numerous adaptations of the book. However, for Greta Gerwig it wasn't possible to shoot at the actual childhood home of Alcott, since it's a truly historic site, although they were able to use some interior. Instead, they built a temporary home in Concord. For other locations, they were fortunate enough to use the historic buildings scattered across New England. The Crane Estate, Harvard General Store, Thayer Estate and the Lyman Estate are just some of the locations they shot at.
