Brontë Parsonage Museum
Brontë Parsonage Museum, Literary house museum in Haworth, England.
The Brontë Parsonage Museum displays manuscripts, personal belongings, and period rooms within a Georgian stone building where the sisters lived and wrote.
The parsonage was built in 1778 and became home to the family in 1820, serving as the setting where much of their literary work took shape. After the father passed away in 1861, the building was eventually opened to visitors and has since served as a memorial site.
The museum maintains over 7,000 artifacts, including original manuscripts of Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, alongside family paintings and personal correspondence.
The rooms are spread across multiple floors, with narrow staircases leading to the upper levels. A visit typically takes around an hour, depending on how much time you spend reading the displayed texts.
The study still holds the original dining table where the three sisters composed their novels and discussed their manuscripts together. The rooms also preserve small personal items such as spectacles and needlework, bringing the family's daily life into focus.
