DRESDEN, NY

Robert Ingersoll Birthplace is a historic site located in Dresden, New York. The site is a two-story wooden house that was built in 1833 by John Ingersoll, Robert Ingersoll's father. The house is a typical example of Federal architecture, with a symmetrical facade, a central doorway, and two chimneys on either side of the house.

Robert Ingersoll was born in this house on August 11, 1833. He was a lawyer, politician, and orator who became known as "The Great Agnostic" for his outspoken views on religion and his advocacy for secularism. Ingersoll was an influential figure in the late 19th century and was known for his speeches and writings that challenged traditional religious beliefs.

The house has been restored and is now a museum that showcases the life and legacy of Robert Ingersoll. The museum features exhibits on Ingersoll's life, his political career, and his speeches and writings. Visitors can also see the room where Ingersoll was born, as well as artifacts and personal belongings that belonged to him.

Robert Ingersoll Birthplace is an important landmark of American history and a place of interest for those interested in the history of secularism and free thought in the United States. It is open to the public and welcomes visitors from all backgrounds.
