Wow, what a beautiful house and exciting history! Georgia, Rosemary, and Lauren did a great job explaining the house and answering my family's questions. I highly recommend a visit here!
(Happy Birthday again, Lauren!)

I visited for a wedding. The venue was elegant without being over done. I would definitely consider coming here again, especially because of the Memphis history.
Rising from ancient magnolia trees, the Woodruff-Fontaine House stands as a reminder of an era long gone. This beautiful French Victorian Mansion was built in 1870 along "Millionaire's Row". The mansion, home to two prominent Memphis families, was deeded to the city in 1936 and stood vacant for several years. The Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities rescued the house in 1961 and restored it to its former splendor. Preserved inside are eclectic collections of antiquities and artifacts from the 19th and Turn of the 20th centuries. The mansion is appropriately dressed according to the holiday or season. Permanent collections are on display throughout the year
