Lonely Planet review for Knott House Museum
Housed in a stately 1843 white column-fronted building, the Knott House Museum is a quirky attraction. Occupied during the Civil War by Confederate and then Union troops before the Emancipation Proclamation was read here in 1865, it’s otherwise known as ‘the house that rhymes.’ That’s because in 1928 it was bought by politico William V Knott, whose poet wife, Luella, attached verses on the evils of drink to the many of the furnishings.
