Rosson House is a restored late-1800s house in downtown Phoenix that now operates as a museum run by The Square PHX. Built in the mid-1890s in a Victorian style, it was designed by a San Francisco architect and passed through many owners before the City of Phoenix bought and restored it. Visitors join small guided tours of roughly an hour that cover the living areas and tell the stories of the many people who lived there. The house sits within Heritage & Science Park, which also has a museum store, restaurants, a rose garden, and outdoor walking tours.
