Korner's Folly

Körner's Folly is a historic home located at Kernersville, Forsyth County, North Carolina, United States.

In the 1870s he moved back to his hometown of Kernersville to build Körner's Folly and start an interior decorating and design business.

After marrying Polly Alice Masten and having two children, Gilmer and Dore, Körner closed the carriageway and renovated the house to its present floor plan.

Jule and Polly Alice Korner built the theater as part of their "Juvenile Lyceum," which was a philanthropic project providing local children with access to the arts.

Visitors can view original furnishings and artwork, 15 fireplaces, cast-plaster details, carved woodwork, and elaborate hand-laid tiles.
