Discover the story of how Keats House became a museum, and what it was like when it first opened to the public 100 years ago.
Our new Keats House 100 exhibition and special displays will immerse you in how the house looked when it first opened to the public in May 1925.
After all connection with Keats was lost in the 1830s, the house continued to be a private residence for another ninety years. During that time, interest in Keats grew.
In the 1920s, the Keats House Memorial Committee was formed to raise funds for its purchase as 'a living memorial to John Keats'. This was eventually achieved and the opening event took place on 9 May 1925.
Entry to the exhibition is included in admission, as are volunteer led tours, which take place most Thursday, Friday and Sunday afternoons.
