Today the fourteen-room house is a museum containing period furniture, portraits, and artifacts from the Todd and Lincoln families.
The museum introduces visitors to the complex life of Mary Todd Lincoln, from her refined upbringing in a wealthy, slave-holding family to her reclusive years as a mourning widow.
The Mary Todd Lincoln house has the distinction of being the first historic site restored in honor of a First Lady.
In June 1996, the Beula C. Nunn Garden at the Mary Todd Lincoln House was dedicated and opened to the public.
[4] Belle Brezing was a working girl in a bawdy house, run by Jenny Hill, located in this building starting in 1879.
