Audubon visited the Florida Keys and Dry Tortugas in 1832. Audubon left Key West having sighted and drawn 22 new birds for his "Birds of America" folio. It is believed that many of those drawings were conceived in the Audubon House garden. Audubon's painting of the white-crowned pigeon features the Geiger tree found in the front yard of the house.The 19th-century home was built by Captain John H.

Geiger, licensed harbor pilot and master wrecker, who lived in the house with his wife and nine children. It was an era when shipwrecks occurred daily on the off-shore reef. It was a time of pirates and yellow fever, slave ships and Indian wars.

Who’s ready for a night in? Cards on the table, music in the air, and a spread fit for the occasion—life inside Audubon House & Tropical Gardens wasn’t all that different… just a little more refined.

Step through the rooms and you’ll find carefully preserved scenes from another era—where evenings were slower, conversations lasted longer, and entertainment was a little more hands-on.
