DOWNTOWN.   The historic home where this Tallahassee museum resides was called “The House that Rhymes” because of the writings of poet and former resident, Luella Knott, in the 1930s. The Knott House was built as a home in 1843 and later reopened as a museum in 1992. Offering the opportunity to read through Mrs. Knott's imaginative poems and even stand on the same steps where the Emancipation Proclamation was read, this is certainly one of the most interesting tours in Tallahassee.   (© 10Best)

I enjoyed visiting the Knott House Museum. It has such a deep history with the city of Tallahassee. Our tour guide was wonderful! She answered all of my questions. I enjoyed the hospitality very much. I also enjoyed the gift shop. I am a teacher and I found many things I could use in my classroom. I will recommend the Knott House Museum to those I know visiting Tallahassee.

I have only been to Tallahassee a few times, but I have been able to visit the Knott House. I really love how it is set up, with Mrs. Knott's poems scattered about on special pieces of furniture and everything left in its place. The tour was really interesting and educational--it was just like stepping back in time! It also helped that our guide was very helpful and knowledgeable. It's a definite must see in Tallahassee!
