KELTON HOUSE
COLUMBUS, OH
Kelton House is a historic landmark located in the heart of Columbus, Ohio. It was built in 1852 by Fernando Cortez Kelton, a prosperous businessman who made his fortune in the shipping industry. The house was designed in the Italianate style, which was popular during the mid-19th century.
The Kelton family lived in the house for several decades until it was eventually sold to the Columbus Women's Club in 1924. The club used the building as their headquarters until the 1970s when it was turned into a museum.
Today, the Kelton House Museum and Garden is open to the public and serves as a tribute to the Kelton family's legacy and the history of Columbus. Visitors can explore the fully restored home, which features period furnishings, artwork, and decorative items.
