Edgar Allan Poe House and Museum
Edgar Allan Poe House and Museum, Literary house museum in Baltimore, United States.
The Edgar Allan Poe House contains preserved floors, stairs, and original woodwork from the 1830s across multiple levels of the brick structure.
The house was rented by Maria Clemm in 1832, where Edgar Allan Poe resided with his aunt, grandmother, and two cousins until 1835.
The museum exhibits Poe's portable writing desk, chair, and personal items from his time in Richmond, offering insights into his literary work.
Visitors need advance reservations to tour the house, which opens Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM, with additional Wednesday hours April to October.
During renovations in 1979, workers found animal bones under the floorboards, mirroring elements from Poe's fictional tale The Tell-Tale Heart.
