Walt Whitman Birthplace And Interpretive Center

Walt Whitman Birthplace And Interpretive Center

The house itself was built by Whitman's father and contains nineteenth century furnishings and unusual architecture. Exhibits at the Interpretive Center include 130 Whitman portraits, original letters, manuscripts, artifacts, Whitman's voice on tape, and a schoolmaster's desk.

We hope you enjoy our work.
