Cape May's Victorian House Museum on beautiful grounds in the center of Cape May. Learn some interesting history about Cape May in the Victorian era. Tour themes change each year and with certain holidays.

A visit to the Physick Estate today offers a look back at our Victorian past as evidenced by its architecture, decorative arts, customs, and the lives of one particular Cape May family, the Physicks. Emlen Physick Jr., his widowed mother, Frances Ralston, and his maiden aunt Emilie Parmentier moved into their home when it was completed in 1879.

Interesting and same artifacts are still intact. The "signature" wood is thru-out the home. On his stair case, walls, even even the furniture. Light fixtures, curtains, etc. Wear comfortable shoes.
