About Hower House

Commissioned by local industrialist John Henry Hower and designed by renowned Akron architect Jacob Snyder, the Hower House fills its 28 rooms with mementos from a storied past. The National Historic Landmark—built in 1871—is well preserved, from the 2.5-acre lawn to the mansard roof. Eleven months out of the year, the Victorian mansion hosts tours and programs, wherein visitors can examine treasures from the Howers' world travels.

All of the workers went out of their way to show kindness and hospitality. Even though the tour over the holidays is self guided there was a tour guide or two on each level to give information and answer questions.

It was very enjoyable. Be sure and ask to see the video because it gives you some historical information that the tour guide might forget. You do get to tour all three floors. I would see it again during the Christmas holidays.
