Oldest House Museum and Gardens
The Oldest House in Key West and all of South Florida is located at 322 Duval Street. The house features family portraits and original furnishings, as well as other period pieces, ship models, and documents telling the story of old Key West. In the rear of the house is a spacious, peaceful garden, where benches invite you to sit and reflect. There, you will see the oldest surviving Cook House in South Florida.
Please stop by and tour the Oldest House in Key West, built in 1829. Key West’s oldest wood frame vernacular home (a simple wood frame building, which is the product of the builder’s experience, available resources and response to the environment) and its cookhouse located in the beautiful garden. Our volunteering docents will tell you the rich history of the house and the people that lived here as well as what island life was like in the 1800’s (when available) . The Museum is open from 10 am to 4 pm daily (Closed Sundays from May through October). Experience 19th century architecture, our self guided tours highlight historical information about the house, family and island life in the 1800’s.
