Leffingwell Inn, Colonial museum in Norwich, United States.
The Leffingwell House Museum features a wood-frame structure with two connected saltbox houses, displaying long sloping rooflines and multiple kitchen hearths.
Built in 1675 by Stephen Backus, this building evolved from a two-room house into a tavern by 1701 and later became Christopher Leffingwell's residence.
The museum exhibits a collection of artifacts from Norwich's founding period through the Civil War, including colonial furnishings and traditional craftwork.
Visitors can explore the museum and Joseph Carpenter Silversmith Shop from April through October on Saturdays and Sundays between 11 AM and 3 PM.
The building contains an original colonial brick walkway, period-specific powder horns, and pewter soldiers distributed throughout its chambers.
