Business Description

The Whaley House Museum in San Diego is a significant piece of history showcasing the architectural grandeur of the 19th century. Originally constructed in 1857 with bricks from Thomas Whaley's own brickyard, this stunning example of Greek Revival architecture has played multiple roles throughout its history, including serving as the first commercial theater in San Diego, a county courthouse, and a general store before becoming a family residence. Today, it stands as a vibrant museum where visitors can explore its well-preserved rooms filled with authentic furnishings while learning about the pivotal contributions of the Whaley family to the San Diego community. Notable for its reputation as 'America's Most Haunted House,' the museum offers guided tours where guests can immerse themselves in the rich fabric of local lore, history, and ghostly tales. The ambiance is both enlightening and thrilling, making it a popular destination for history enthusiasts, curious tourists, and budding ghost hunters alike. Located near dining options such as the New Orleans Creole Cafe, the Whaley House Museum promises a day of exploration and discovery.
