Audubon House Museum
The Audubon House Museum & Tropical Gardens was
established in 1960 by Key West native, Colonel Mitchell Wolfson, and his lovely
wife Frances. They restored the elegant three level Captain's home, which was built
in the American Classic Revival architectural style of the mid 1800's. The home
was originally built by Captain John Huling Geiger, who was Key West's first harbor
pilot. Captain Geiger raised many children in the house, and planted beautiful tropical
vegetation on the property. It was the beautiful plants which drew Audubon to it
during his visit in 1832. Audubon took cuttings from the plants growing on the property,
and used them as backgrounds in many works, including the White crowned Pigeon,
which has the "Geiger tree" in the background.
