Visit the modest home of the Father of the Blues, right in the heart of the Home of the Blues in Memphis! Although the house and museum itself is small, the memorabilia and artifacts housed inside showcase the monumental impact blues legend W.C. Handy had on American music.
For a small admission fee, guests can enjoy a guided or self-guided tour of the little home where Handy wrote many of his songs. Inside the home, exhibits feature unique artifacts related to Handy and the history of how he launched the blues sound onto the Memphis scene and across America. The museum includes a gift shop featuring Handy and blues-related gifts and souvenirs.
