    Very interesting complex and good neighbors! Very nice staff and you owe it to yourself to take a tour and with your family if you have one. And take a tour of St Michael's Church right across the street. It's a unique building you will enjoy as well.
  • By Luke Ahn
    I had some time to kill, and the museum complex exceeded my expectations. The admission is free, and I was more than happy to donate. This is a great museum for the area, but the real gem is the tour in the Victorian house of EA Poe. This is not THE Edgar Allan Poe whom is the famous writer, but rather someone from the area whom was progressive that sent his six daughters to college. Highly recommend the Poe tour that makes this place shine.
