This handsome Victorian abode was the longtime home of famed Georgia writer Joel Chandler Harris, who penned some of this countrys most popular stories for children as well as adults. Best known for his Uncle Remus tales, Harris wrote many of his landmark pieces right here in Atlanta, and the story of his life and work is on display at the museum. Guided tours and storytelling programs are offered, as well as a nice shop that stocks books and Brer Rabbit memorabilia.

Stories come alive - Wren's Nest is the former home of Joel Chandler Harris, who chronicled the wily deeds of Br'er Rabbit and Br'er Fox. The best part is the storytelling. Call ahead to find out when storyteller-in-residence Akbar Imhotep will be telling stories culled from African and African-American folklore; it's a real treat.
