Gorgas House Museum

This house is set up amazing. My kids really liked the things you can touch and the short videos on tablets. Sonya was so helpful too!

It is absolutely incredibly how well preserved this almost 200 year old building is. People here do a great job preserving this historic house and keeping it in such good condition. Truly a must do.

Stopped on a in on whim while walking through campus visting our son who's staying at UA for summer research after 2nd year. Although we've been to UA several times now, we didn't know about Gorgas house. What a hidden gem! It was Saturday in summer and we were only visitors. The Gorgas House director was very welcoming and gave us an in-depth personal tour. Unlike many other historical homes we've toured around the country almost nothing was off limits and it was even very hands-on. They have an incredible number of original Gorgas items. The history of Gorgas family and how Mrs. Gorgas affected UA is very interesting. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I’m so happy I stopped by today! The lady who was leading the tour was so informed and kind, so I learned so much!

The Gorgas House is a wonderful piece of local and campus history. Guided tours of the house are available Monday - Friday, and the tour guides are knowledgeable and friendly. Admission is free for University of Alabama students and faculty.

Everything is so Beautiful you got to see for yourself.

Great tour. Lots of interesting history pertaining to this house. Original furniture belonging to Gorgas family. Beautiful house located on property with big beautiful trees on the campus of THE University of Alabama. Must see.

Once saw a giant gopher in the back yard. Never went inside but the gopher seemed cool.
