Welcome to the National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House!
The National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House shares the story of Susan B. Anthony’s lifelong struggle to gain voting rights for women and equal rights for all. We keep her vision alive and relevant by preserving and sharing Anthony’s National Historic Landmark home; collecting artifacts and research materials directly related to her life and work; and making these resources available to the public through tours, publications, the internet, and interpretive programs.
The National Susan B. Anthony Musuem & House was the home of the legendary American civil rights leader during the 40 most politically active years of her life, and the site of her famous arrest for voting in 1872. Come visit through the Photo Gallery, browse through the merchandise in our museum shop, and learn about our ever-expanding programs. Best yet, come see us in person! It's an incredible and inspiring story that you just don't want to miss!
The National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House invites you to tour our website to learn more about this great reformer and the many programs that we offer to inspire others to change world for the better. And, if you happen to be in Rochester, NY, we invite you to come to 17 Madison Street!
