Mary McLeod Bethune Home, African-American house museum at Bethune-Cookman University, Daytona Beach, United States.
The brick two-story home features a hip-roof porch across the front and contains original furnishings from Mary McLeod Bethune's residence until 1955.
Mary McLeod Bethune purchased this house in 1913 while establishing the Daytona Literary and Industrial Training School, which later became Bethune-Cookman College.
The residence displays personal items and documents belonging to Mary McLeod Bethune, who advised four U.S. presidents and founded the National Council of Negro Women.
The museum reopened in 2011 after extensive renovations and now offers guided tours through rooms maintained in their original 1950s configuration.
The foundation established by Mary McLeod Bethune in 1953 continues to maintain the property and preserves extensive documentation of early African-American education initiatives.
