About Dunham Tavern Museum and Gardens

Dunham Tavern Museum and Gardens is a nonprofit that works to preserve and share its historic tavern and surrounding campus as a place for learning and culture. Established in 1824, the tavern is the oldest building in Cleveland still standing on its original site. The organization finished a campus-wide master plan in 2021 to guide future work on its buildings and grounds. Visitors can take docent-guided tours of the tavern museum on set afternoons, or walk the gardens and grounds during daylight hours.
