Trained docents guide students through the elegant home of Indiana's only U.S. president. The dining room features presidential china, and Harrison's study is filled with personal belongings from his White House years. The majority of the house furnishings, which give an accurate view of the Victorian era, are original to the Harrison family, including the original wallpaper designs in the parlors and library. The third floor ballroom exhibit changes yearly.
