Library - Tour Overview

On today's tour we will cover...

Electricity and lighting as well as Edison, his genius, and some of his other inventions.

Henry Rogers and his vision of his home as a house of the future, as it is filled with new technologies that we take for granted today, but which were revolutionary for the time.

How this house reflects history of Appleton and, as a result, represents many of the significant changes happening across America in the 1880s.

And finally, art, as this house is filled with marvelous examples of Victorian interior design, decorative arts, and fine art.
