Gibson House Museum

The Gibson House Museum, built in 1859 and located on Beacon Street, is a preserved mid-19th-century brownstone that retains original furnishings and domestic interiors documenting Victorian domestic life in Boston. Operated as a house museum, it offers guided tours that interpret the household’s architecture, room layouts, and changes in domestic technology over time. The museum's intact urban rowhouse interiors provide a rare, detailed example of Boston residential design from that era.
