History can be cruel but we need to learn the truth

It's right next to Mark Twain Museum & House. Our tour guide Rodrigo was very helpful and knowledgeable about Harriet Beecher Stowe's social background. You'll get a deep look into America's dark past of slavery.
The Harriet Beecher Stowe Center preserves and interprets Stowe’s Hartford home and the Center’s historic collections, promotes vibrant discussion of her life and work, and inspires commitment to social justice and positive change. The Stowe Center is open year round for tours and programs. On a Stowe House tour, expect a conversational experience -- you participate along with your guide. Hear about Stowe’s life and the impact of anti-slavery novel "Uncle Tom’s Cabin." Connect the past to the present as you discuss social issues of the 19th century and today. See the beautifully preserved Victorian cottage, now a National Historic Landmark, where Stowe lived for 23 years. Leave feeling inspired that you too can create positive change.
