Virginia's only literary museum honors this great American Writer with the world's largest collection of Poe artifacts. The Museum was opened in 1922 in the Old Stone House, Richmond's oldest standing structure, only blocks away from the sites of Poe's first Richmond home and first place of employment. The Museum includes exhibits on Poe's life and death, the "enchanted" courtyard garden, and the Poe Shrine. Enjoy a guided tour, visit with the resident black cats, and enjoy the beauty of the Enchanted Garden. The Museum also has a unique gift shop with dozens of Poe-related items. Call the museum to learn more about holding a corporate event, wedding ceremony, or other private event in the historic garden, which is also available for photography shoots and filming. Contact info@poemuseum.org with any questions.
