The Darley House in Claymont, DE is a historic home that was once owned by world-renowned illustrator Felix O.C. Darley. Built in the late 18th century and expanded in the 19th century, the house was renamed The Wren's Nest when Darley purchased it in 1863. Darley illustrated books for famous authors such as Washington Irving, Edgar Allen Poe, and Charles Dickens, and two of his most notable works were Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a must-visit for history and art enthusiasts.
