The Ellwood House Museum is located in DeKalb, Illinois.
In a historic neighborhood you will enjoy the surrounding area as much as the mansion!
You will see a little house that sits outside the museum. The house was built in 1891 and was used as a parade float and then a playhouse. So much history in this little house.
Check out the Free music at the mansion on Wednesdays. Bring your chair and come enjoy.
Take a tour of one of the multiple buildings or tour them all. The tours are a small fee. You can even tie the knot and rent the mansion to get married. Next time you’re near DeKalb stop and see the Ellwood House Museum! Happy Travels 🙂
