Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site

The Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site preserves the restored rowhouse where Poe lived in Philadelphia from 1843 to 1844 and interprets his life and work through period rooms and exhibits. The site is administered as a house museum and offers guided tours and educational programs about Poe's writing and the city's 19th-century literary history. It is one of several Poe-related sites in Philadelphia documenting the author’s time in the city.
