Many famous people have lived in Alabama at some point in their lives, including F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. The Fitzgeralds were well-known celebrities of the “Jazz Age” and used to reside in Montgomery’s Cloverdale Historic District. The couple’s former home receives thousands of visitors annually, and after renovations, fans are now able to book an overnight stay there.
For information regarding this incredible home, including how to book an overnight stay, take a look:
The Fitzgerald Home, which is located in Montgomery, Alabama, was the residence of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, along with their daughter Scottie, from October 1931 to April 1932.
Built in 1910, this historic home is currently operated as The Fitzgerald Museum, which is the only museum in the world that's dedicated to the life of F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.
The museum's holdings are divided into four main areas that cover six different time periods. The artifacts on display, which include the Fitzgerald's love letters, Zelda's paintings and first editions of F. Scott Fitzgerald's books, are amazing!
After moving out in 1932, the Fitzgerald Home was subsidized into apartments. Many years later, in 1986, it was scheduled to be demolished. Thankfully, it was purchased by the McPhillips - the museum founders.
