Long recognized as one of our most popular American Presidents, Theodore Roosevelt was in truth much more thoughtful and deliberate with his decision making than any of us realized. The most fascinating part of this museum for us was learning that the issues he faced during his presidency are pretty much the exact same ones that America faces today. Not... More

Not knowing what this site had to offer, it is truly a gem that you will not want to miss. It's a recap of the history of where TR was inaugurated after McKinley was shot.

The house is an outstanding piece of architecture and its history is intriguing. What really makes a visit special is the interactive technology with accentuates the visitor's experience. Later this year the gardens should be restored following the demolition of a neighboring building and will enhance the entire experience.

This is a terrific snippet of history, the place where Theodore Roosevelt was inaugurated after the assassination here of William McKinley in 1901. (Don't blame us, we were out of town that day). Beautiful appointments, well-informed tourguides and an especial joy at Christmas.

We learned many things about the history of the Pan American Exposition of 1901 and the details surrounding President McKinley's assasination and... More

The tour guides are super-knowledgeable and the site itself does the most with a limited space. There is off-street parking and a nice gift shop. There are not many people who can... More

Good parking in a hip neighbourhood. Reasonable price for a guided tour of the home where Teddy Roosevelt was sworn in as President after the assination of President McKinley. Most of the rooms have some of the original furniture from the time. The main floor of the home has displays showing Buffalo during this period. A very informative movie is... More
