Mark Twain House & Museum
Every Connecticut resident needs to make a stop at the Mark Twain House & Museum. Samuel Clemens, Twain's real name, and his family lived in Hartford's Twain House from 1874 to 1891. The author wrote many of his most well-known works in the house, including A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This stop is not just great for literary buffs. It is also a fun stop for architecture enthusiasts. With 25 rooms, the home features a lush conservatory, a grand library, and Twain's favorite spot: the billiard room.
Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art
With nearly 50,000 works of art spanning 5,000 years of history, there is something for everyone at Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. The museum has been open to the public since 1844, making it the oldest continually operating public art museum in America. You will want to spend at least a day at the museum, where you will be able to browse Surrealist paintings, enjoy European and American Impressionist works, as well as check out the latest in contemporary art.
