- The Home of Hemmingway
This one’s a great pick for anyone who’s a fan of literature, history, or even Spanish Colonial architecture. This gorgeous mansion was built in the 1850s and is now a major tourist attraction in Old Town Key West.
You’ll find over 40 cats, some of whom are descendants of the six-toed cat given to Hemmingway by the ship captain!
The home is also a museum housing personal effects, various animal trophies, and other curios collected by the Nobel Prize-winning author himself. You’ll find several tour guides willing to give you an informative walk through the mansion, or you can take a walk on your own.
