Noah Webster House, Historic house museum in West Hartford, United States.
The Noah Webster House features a central chimney, symmetrical facade, and multi-paned windows characteristic of colonial New England residential architecture.
The house, constructed between 1715 and 1720, gained recognition as a National Historic Landmark in 1962 before opening as a museum in 1966.
The museum maintains exhibits about Noah Webster's contributions to American education and the development of the first comprehensive English language dictionary.
The museum provides guided tours, educational programs, and hands-on activities that demonstrate daily life in colonial America through period-appropriate demonstrations.
The original 120-acre farm property includes a modern museum addition designed to resemble a traditional New England barn structure.
