O. Henry Museum (writer's house)

The O. Henry Museum occupies the former home of short-story writer William Sydney Porter (known as O. Henry) and interprets his life and work in Austin during the late 19th century. The museum displays period furnishings and exhibits about Porter’s time in Austin, offers guided tours, and presents literary programming tied to his legacy. It is operated by a local nonprofit dedicated to preserving the author’s historic residence and promoting literary heritage.
