Property Information

The Brontë Parsonage Museum is maintained by the Brontë Society in honour of the famed Brontë sisters Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë. Located in the cobbled village of Haworth, surrounded by open, expansive moorland believed to be inspiration for the Brontes' famous works. The Brontë Parsonage Museum is popular with those seeking to find the source of the sisters' inspiration and is of particular interest as the Brontës spent most of their lives here and wrote their famous novels in these surroundings.

The Brontës were the world's most famous literary family and Haworth Parsonage, now the Brontë Parsonage Museum, was their home from 1820 to 1861. The Brontë Parsonage Museum tells the interesting story of the Bronte's lives and works. The Museum is beautifully maintained and packed full of family memorabilia, original furniture and facts and information for visitors to guide themselves around. The Brontë Parsonage Museum shop stocks a wide range of books, gifts and souvenirs including old favourites, new temptations and curiosities, many of which are exclusive to the museum.

Unique Features

Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë were the authors of some of the best-loved books in the English language. Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre (1847), Emily's Wuthering Heights (1847), and Anne's The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848) were written in this house over a hundred and fifty years ago, yet their power still moves readers today. The Parsonage was the home in which the young Brontës' creativity was nurtured, where they created their childhood lands of Angria and Gondal, and in which they served a collaborative literary apprenticeship of over twenty years prior to the publication of their novels.
