Kelton House Museum and Garden
Columbus, USA


Kelton House Museum and Garden is a Federal-style home built in 1852 that offers a glimpse into the life of a prominent local family, the Keltons, who were involved in the abolitionist movement. Visitors are greeted by period furnishings and décor that reflect the mid-19th century, alongside beautifully landscaped gardens that were once a refuge from the bustling city.
Allow an hour to explore the house and the surrounding gardens, which bloom with color in spring and summer. The museum is located near the downtown area, making it easy to combine with a visit to other cultural institutions, such as the nearby Columbus Museum of Art. The tranquility of the garden provides a quiet contrast to urban life.
